Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Well..I have a problem with the Latitude.  A latitude & longitude reading is usually given in degrees (angle), then minutes, then seconds.  There isn't 74 minutes in an hour there are only 60.  So, should this be 33.14.00 Latitude? I haven't done lat and long readings since I was in highschool and that was a long, long time ago!!  So, maybe the way they state them is different these days.  This is fun though, I'll have to do some digging!!

      32.74 is in decimal degrees. To convert the fraction of a degree to minutes, multiply it by 60. .74*60 = 44.4. Now you have 32 degrees, 44.4 minutes. The .4 minutes can be converted to seconds the same way: (.4 minutes)*(60 seconds/minute) = 24 seconds.

      So, 32.74 degrees = 32o44'24".

      I can't tell you the address, but I can tell you it appears to be at the end of a dead-end street. I see no building at that particular location, though there are some nearby.
