To convert latitude and longitude to decimal notation, you must find the degrees, divide the minutes by 60 and divide the seconds by 3,600. Finally, add these three numbers together, and determine if the answer is positive or negative.
The Earth rotates one full turn (360Âº of longitude) in one day. It therefore turns one degree of longitude in 1/360th of a day, or every four minutes. To calculate your longitude, you therefore simply need to work out the time difference between noon at your location and noon at the Prime Meridian.
