Question for GPS Owners - 01/14/20 06:35 PM
For those of you who use car and handheld GPS units:
For a North American location, does your system ask you to enter longitude as a negative number (-xx.xxx), or as a positive number with the West designation (xx.xxx W)?
I'm writing a guidebook for end users, and trying to explain how different GIS systems designate the coordinates in comparison to car/handheld units.
Thanks!
