Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between DD and DMS?
Decimal Degrees (DD) represents coordinates as standard floating-point numbers (e.g. 40.7128), while Degrees Minutes Seconds (DMS) breaks coordinates into base-60 sexagesimal units (40° 42' 46" N).
Does this tool upload my coordinates to any server?
No. All calculations are performed 100% client-side in your web browser with complete privacy.
