in reply to Map coordinates?

roboticus and pme solved the coordinates, but the code is likely missing the hemisphere. Convention is to treat it as (47 52.257 N, 122 09.400 E), which is in Mongolia. If it is treated as (47 52.257 N, 122 09.400 W) then it is near the I5 highway in Washington, USA, and this is more consistent with the variable names.

    Forgot to note that if it is southern hemisphere then it's a choice of Pacific or Indian Oceans.
