Hello good day

I wrote about Google Earth coordinates in RadMap, coordinates took me to a different place. If they are the same coordinates, should not be the same place?

I found the problem, I forgot to do the conversion. To accomplish here is an example:
If the latitude or longitude is: 19 ° 45 '98.99''using the following equation:
 
= 19 + (45 / 60) + (98.99 / 3600)
We will coordinate in decimal in the right way.

I hope I helped = P.

Hello Carlos,

Our control has no concerns to the Google Earth application. RadMap uses different representation for geographical coordinates system (like MS Bing Map Control). The coordinates to the West from Greenwich have negative longitude. The coordinates to the East from Greenwich have positive longitude.
