      Environment: N\A
      Area: Coordinate Systems
      Subarea: General

    Problem

    How to key-in a datapoint with latitude and longitude in dd"mm'ss format in MicroStationv8 2004 edition?

    Solution

    Data points can be entered in Longitude, Latitude by using the "point absolute" keyin with the longitude and latitude entered in any of the following formats:

    12.345 = 12.345 degrees
    12^34.5 = 12 degrees, 34.5 minutes
    12:34.5 = 12 degrees, 34.5 minutes
    12d34.5 = 12 degrees, 34.5 minutes
    12d34.5m = 12 degrees 34.5 minutes
    12:34'56.7 = 12 degrees, 34 minutes 56 seconds
    12:34'56.7" = 12 degrees, 34 minutes 56 seconds
    12:34:56.7 = 12 degrees 34 minutes, 56.7 seconds
    12d34m56.7 = 12 degrees 34 minutes, 56.7 seconds
    12d34m56.7s = 12 degrees 34 minutes, 56.7 seconds
