What is DMS and DD?
Degrees, Minutes, Seconds (DMS) format expresses latitude and longitude using a combination of degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″).
It is commonly used in surveying, cartography, and traditional navigation.
Decimal Degrees (DD) format simplifies coordinates into a pure decimal number, making it ideal for modern digital applications such as GPS devices, GIS platforms, remote sensing software, and mapping APIs.
How It Works
- 📍 Input a coordinate either in DMS (e.g., 37°42′45.95″ N) or in DD (e.g., 37.712764).
- 🔄 Automatic two-way conversion:
- DMS → DD
- DD → DMS
- 🛠️ Real-time formatting ensures clean and standardized output as you type or paste values.
- ⚙️ Error validation to prevent mistakes like wrong degrees, minutes, seconds, or missing direction (N/S/E/W).
Export Options
After converting your coordinate, you can easily export the result into several widely used geospatial data formats:
- 📄 TXT — Simple text format for quick sharing or documentation.
- 📑 CSV — Table format for spreadsheets and database import.
- 🛰️ WKT (Well-Known Text) — For GIS software like QGIS and ArcGIS.
- 🌎 GeoJSON — Ready for web mapping and spatial APIs like Leaflet or Mapbox.
