[Qgis-user] Qgis-user Digest, Vol 85, Issue 32

Wed Mar 13 08:53:57 PDT 2013

I've got the data in a table.
Apparently they are wrong (more than 59 minutes).

I'll check them.
Thanks a lot

Regards
Bernd

Hi
First, your data is kind of rare, you can not have more than 60 minutes or more than 60 seconds (50?96'06''2N for instance). How did you get this info? a gpx file or your field notes? (usually a gps stores data in lat lon wgs84, no matter how you configure the unit to display the data).  If you want to covert lat lon data in to utm you have to make two things. A) Convert your readings in to decimal degrees in a spreadsheet.
You have to capture in separate columns the arguments for degrees minutes and seconds. Then the formula will bedeg+(min/60)+(sec/3600). Keep in mind that the formula for your longitudes must be: -1*(deg+(min/60)+(sec/3600)) since your data is in the western hemisphere.  Copy the values of the formulas in a new file and label the first row lat lon accordingly. You can include an identifier. Save the file as CSV comma delimited.
B1) Load the CSV file in Qgis using the "add delimited text layer" plugin.  Once the data is on the screen you have to select the layer and save is as shp or comma separated value, that your choice. You have to choose also the coordinate system of your choice for the new layer.
B2) Or you can also use GPS babel (free). It can read a csv file and convert it to utm. Just check the documentation for the supported datums

I'm not sure if they are milliseconds.O would try to divide the last digits by 3600000 (and sum to the rest)

     Hi Giovanni,

       If I try this the points are fare away from the real point.

       What about the Number rigth from seconds (f.e. 2 or 9)?

       Regards

              Hi all,

               how I can convert data in following format to get decimal
               degrees.

               50?96'06''2N/7?70'18''3O

               50?96'39''9N/7?68'56''3O

               50?95'72''9N/7?68'00''5O

               Garmin GPS configuration:

               Positionsformat: UTM UPS

               Kartenbezugssystem: WGS84

               Kartensph?roid: WGS84

               Would WGS84/UPS North (EPSG 32661) in Qgis the correct
               coordinate system?

               I use ETRS89 (EPSG 25832)

               Regards

                   Bernd

Gerardo, it was already explained... the problem with its coordinates is
that they don't overlay on its map. I suppose its map is in a different CRS
and the on the fly reprojection don't fit well because of trnasformations
parameters.

Anyway, yes, the "milliseconds" are unusale...
