Im trying to write a function that takes my decimal degrees (lat or long) and converts them to DMS degrees minutes seconds. I know I am meant to times the decimal point number by 60 then it's decimal again. But am a noob. Would I split the number?
function ConvertDDToDMS(DD) {
eg. DD =-42.4
D= 42;
M= 4*60;
S= .M * 60;
var DMS =
return DMS //append Direction (N, S, E, W);
}
Am I on the right track?
Try this working perfect!!!
function truncate(n) {
return n > 0 ? Math.floor(n) : Math.ceil(n);
}
function getDMS(dd, longOrLat) {
let hemisphere = /^[WE]|(?:lon)/i.test(longOrLat)
? dd < 0
? "W"
: "E"
: dd < 0
? "S"
: "N";
const absDD = Math.abs(dd);
const degrees = truncate(absDD);
const minutes = truncate((absDD - degrees) * 60);
const seconds = ((absDD - degrees - minutes / 60) * Math.pow(60, 2)).toFixed(2);
let dmsArray = [degrees, minutes, seconds, hemisphere];
return `${dmsArray[0]}°${dmsArray[1]}'${dmsArray[2]}" ${dmsArray[3]}`;
}
var lat = 13.041107;
var lon = 80.233232;
var latDMS = getDMS(lat, 'lat');
var lonDMS = getDMS(lon, 'long');
console.log('latDMS: '+ latDMS);
console.log('lonDMS: '+ lonDMS);
Output:
latDMS: 13°2'27.99" N
lonDMS: 80°13'59.64" E
This one works %100 in TypeScript:
ConvertDDToDMS(deg: number, lng: boolean): string {
var d = parseInt(deg.toString());
var minfloat = Math.abs((deg - d) * 60);
var m = Math.floor(minfloat);
var secfloat = (minfloat - m) * 60;
var s = Math.round((secfloat + Number.EPSILON) * 100) / 100
d = Math.abs(d);
if (s == 60) {
m++;
s = 0;
}
if (m == 60) {
d++;
m = 0;
}
let dms = {
dir: deg < 0 ? lng ? 'W' : 'S' : lng ? 'E' : 'N',
deg: d,
min: m,
sec: s
};
return `${dms.deg}\u00B0 ${dms.min}' ${dms.sec}" ${dms.dir}`
}
