Converting Degree Minutes (DM) to Decimal Degrees (DD)

[@medium-old]

Hi Prof -- I took your class in at UF, back in 2020. Working now heavily with marine geospatial coordinates which require this conversion. Thanks so much for your dedication to publicly accessible GIS tutorials.

[@sounny]

So happy you are still benefiting from it. Thanks for the kind words.

Very helpful! Thanks a lot for detailed explanation without time wasting!

as a florida marine scientist, I am always in this same situation, the text to columns trick is great, and thanks for the reminder for the rest (this is after going from DMS to DM.m)

Good explanation, how about if the data contains positions in both the northern and southern hemisphere, eastern and western hemisphere?

Hey I keep coming back to this video every time I have to do this. I work in a natural history collection and people submit data in all kinds of different formats.

Hello Sir, I'm Ajith From India, I have followed your pattern for the conversion of DM to DD but for me, the formula is not working it shows the value as an error. Can you please help me to sort out the issue?
