[postgis-users] How to store coordinates correctly

[MaRcELo PeReiRa]

Hi there,

It's my first post in this list, and here is my first question:

Which is the correct way to store in a table some geografic coordinates???

I have a point:
- S 22º 04' 2,5''
- W 46º 50' 34,9''

How can I store it??? Should I convert it??

Thanks in advance,
Marcelo / Brasil
