Description
[edit]This template converts a positive decimal degree value to degrees° minutes' seconds'' format, or to degrees° minutesm secondss format (the degree symbol ° is invariant between the two formats).
Usage
[edit]{{Deg2DMS|positive decimal degrees|p=precision|sup=ms}}
|p= is optional and defaults to 3. It is the number of decimal digits that the seconds are rounded to.
|sup= is optional and changes the default apostrophe-format for arcminutes and arcseconds (1° 2′ 3″) to the m-s-format for arcminutes and arcseconds (1° 2m 3s). Any non-blank value has this effect, but using |sup=ms is customary.
For example:
{{Deg2DMS|266.416837}} returns 266° 25′ 0.613″
{{Deg2DMS|266.416837|p=4}} returns 266° 25′ 0.6132″
{{Deg2DMS|266.416837|p=4|sup= }} returns 266° 25′ 0.6132″
{{Deg2DMS|266.416837|p=4|sup=ms}} returns 266° 25m 0.6132s
{{Deg2DMS|266.416837|p=4|sup=no}} returns 266° 25m 0.6132s
{{Deg2DMS|266.416837|p=4|sup=}} returns 266° 25′ 0.6132″
