Guest guest Posted September 12, 2007 Report Share Posted September 12, 2007 Dear friends, If you want to see what your birth coordinates are exactly, please try out Google Earth. I found out that the coordinates I have been using for several decades for my birth city are off by some minutes when compared to what Google Earth suggests for the hospital where I was born. According to the coordinates I have been using, I was born 200 meters off shore! More importantly, the correct rising degree is some minutes from the earlier calculation. In Google Earth the the pointer at any given time will show the corresponding coordinates to an amazing level of detail. As accuracy can increase the benefit of a chart reading in SA, I share with you where to get google earth downloaded from. http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html Best wishes, Thor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
