Convert Degrees/Minutes/Seconds to Decimal Coordinates

Question

In one part of my code I convert from decimal coordinates to degrees/minutes/seconds and I use this:

double coord = 59.345235;
int sec = (int)Math.Round(coor         


        

Answer 1

CoordinateSharp is available as a Nuget package and can handle Coordinate conversions for you. It even does UTM/MGRS conversion and provides solar/lunar times relative to the input location. It's really easy to use!

Coordinate c = new Coordinate(40.465, -75.089);

//Display DMS Format
c.FormatOptions.Format = CoordinateFormatType.Degree_Minutes_Seconds;
c.ToString();//N 40º 27' 54" W 75º 5' 20.4"
c.Latitude.ToString();//N 40º 27' 54"
c.Latitude.ToDouble();//40.465

Coordinate properties are iObservable as as well. So if you change a latitude minute value for example, everything else will update.
