I have a question concerning British scientific notation, in relation to longitude and latitude coordinates. And, in particular, the interpunct. Take, for instance, the following:
Should the first notation be read as "41 degress, 27 minutes North by 8 degrees, 47 point 7 minutes West"? Or should it be "41 degress, 27 minutes North by 8 degrees, 47 minutes 7 seconds West"? What is most confusing is that the minutes symbol (') is preceding the interpunct.
I appreciate any help you can provide in this.
And in case you might be curious, I'm looking for the coordinates of OPD's pelamis project. I found the pdf from a google search for wave farms.
Any information concerning how to read this is appreciated.
