VS 2010 - Convert Latitude / Longitude Into Values In Decimal Degrees

May 30, 2011

Create a function named DecimalDegrees to refactor the code that converts a latitude or longitude into a value in decimal degrees. (This function will be used inside the functions ValueOf and Distance.)
Task 2a: Write the code for the function DecimalDegrees with an input parameter for DegreeString as type string, and returns the value as type Double.

Here is my code for the function part
Private Function DecimalDegrees(ByVal DegreeString As String, ByVal degrees As Double, ByVal minutes As Double,
ByVal seconds As Double, ByVal ID As Integer) As Double

I am having difficulties with the 2nd part which is I believe to take the code for the calc1 and calc2 buttons and somehow get it to convert to decimal degrees by the function I have created. The buttons would then be removed as the code would automatically take the latitude and longitude and convert the degrees, minutes and seconds into a decimal.

Here is the code for the current buttons:
Dim StartPtr, StopPtr As Integer
'To Replace Calculator 1 Button
'Convert degrees before passing argument - Latitude
StartPtr = 0

Convert Double To Decimal (latitude / Longitude) In .net?

May 24, 2012

I have a piece of code:

Dim Latitude As Double = row("fltLatitude")
Dim Longitude As Double = row("fltLongitude")

Most of the lat/longs that are being fetched from the db using SP are retrieved in properly, except for a couple of records which do not include a period to indicate a lat/long value.I have tried using these:

Convert.ToDecimal(Latitude)
CDec(Latitude)
decimal.Parse(Latitude)

but none of them are working.

Read The Latitude And Longitude Byte Values From The DEM File (retrieving Binary Values)?

Mar 23, 2009

I have a DEM file(Digital Elevattion Model File) and I am trying to open the file,where we have Latitude and Longitude values inside the DEM file.And, Now I have opened the file using Filestream and Read the file using BinaryReader.But, I am having a trobule in getting the values of Latitude and Longitude.I am getting Byte values randomly as 1,202,31,271 etc.But, we dont have latitude and longitude values more than 180,and also I am not getting 16 bit UInt values.For example, the values should be like Latitude 20.00416666666667 and Longitude 39.99583333333333.So,read the correct Byte values of the DEM file.The code I have used till now is:

Dim fs As FileStream = New FileStream("C:UsersadminDesktopHeader and DEM fileE020N40.DEM", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read)
Dim rd As New BinaryReader(fs)
Dim convertDB As UInt16
For i = 0 To rd.BaseStream.Length

Convert OSGB 36 Co-ordinates To Latitude/Longitude?

Mar 18, 2009

I want to convert British OSGB 36 co-ordinates to WGS 84 (i.e. "standard" latitude and longitude), in order to plot them into a KML file for Google Earth.I should probably add that my question is not "How do I write a KML file?". My question is "How do I convert between these 2 co-ordinate systems?"!!I was hoping there would be a library that I could use, rather than rolling my own function - it seems like the sort of thing some-one else would have implemented.

Longitude And Latitude Converter

Nov 25, 2011

I'm trying to make a longitude and latitude converter. I use Google maps to get longitude and latitude for my handheld GPS but there longitude and latitude is a different type then my GPS uses. I have to convert it before putting it in my GPS.

I made a very simple program using VB 2008 that open up right to Google maps and at the top of the program i want to put the converter.

I have done a lot of research and still i am not able to wright a code that will do the conversion. For the conversion Need to multiply the decimal part of the longitude and latitude by 60

For example if i had 40.313043,-97.573244 I would multiply .313043 by 60 witch = 18.78258 and then i would multiply .573244 by 60 witch = 34.39464 The finale longitude and latitude would be 40 18.782, 97 34.394

Any Formula To Change Latitude And Longitude Into Single Number?

Nov 27, 2011

If there is a formula to change a latitude and longitude into a single number? I plan to use this for a database table in software that provides routing for deliveries. The table row would have that number as well as the postal address. The database table would be sorted in ascending numeric order so the software can figure out which address the truck would need to go to first, second etc.

For example I would use the following numbers for the latitude and longitude:
Lat = 40.71412890
Long = -73.96140740

Additional Information: I'm developing an Android app using Basic4Android. Basic4Android uses a VB or VB.Net syntax with SQLite as the database. Part of this app will have route planning. I want to use this number as the first column in an SQLite table and the other columns will be for the address. If I do a query within the app that sorts the rows in numerical ascending order, I will be able to figure out which postal address are closest to each other so it will take less time for me to go from house to house.

For example, if the numbers were:
194580, 199300, 178221

I can go to postal address 178221 then to 194580 and finally to 199300 and I won't need to take the long way around town to do my deliveries after they were sorted. As an alternative, I would be happy if there was an easy way to call a web service that returns maybe a json response that has the single number if I send a postal address to the web site. Basic4Android does have http services that can send requests to a web site.

calculate the gps coordinates of points of a specific distance, namely 22 feet apart, on the circumference of a circle. I know the beginning gps coordinates and the radius. I am pretty sure the haversine, or the speherical law of cosines has the answer, but its been a long time since I have used any trig formulas and I cant figure it out. I am using decimal degrees and am programing in this vb.net.

Get Elevation Value Of Given Latitude And Longitude From A DEM File In 11x11 Matrix?

Apr 2, 2009

I need to display or get the elevation value of a given latitude and longitude from the DEM file in 11x11 matrix array.Actually I have a DEM file and corresponding HDR file of it.And, the DEM file is 6000x4800 Matrix with 57600000 data's.Now, I worked with some codes where I can able to get the elevation of a Given latitude and longitude.But, When I Zoom IN or OUT,the Latitude and Longitude values changes so,when I pass the changed latitude and Longitude value,I could not able to get the elevation value.The reason is,

In the 6000x4800 matrix the Resolution of the X and Y is large,so when we Zoom IN or OUT the resolution changes and could not display the elevation value.But, where as if we get the elevation values in 11x11 matrix array,since it has 121 data's only, the resolution value will be small and even when we Zoom IN or OUT and pass the changed Latitude and Longitude, we could able to get the elevation.[code]....

Convert BCD To Decimal?

Dec 7, 2009

I am trying to convert information stored in a file to a decimal (or ASCII) format, then write the contents of that file to a new file.

What I have is a list of files that are generated from a cash register. The documentation that was provided to me says that this particular file I am trying to work with has a length of 6, a width of 6, and that it's BCD type.

I've done quite a few google searches and can't seem to find a good solution. I know BCD numbers should be stored as 0000 format. But the problem I'm getting is when I read each part of the file (using my sr.read) I'm getting full numbers..and I am expecting the 0000 format. I'll get a 0, 0, 0, and then all of the sudden I"ll get a number that's 65,000..then I'll get a 34...and there doesn't seem to be any

I'm sure I'm doing something incorrect here, my knowledge of reading HEX, BCD, etc. is very minimal. I'm guessing it has to do with using a filestream, so I can use the fs.ReadByte() method..but when I tried that my program was literally chugging along for several minutes with no sign of ending.[code]...

Convert A Double X To A Decimal Y?

Oct 5, 2011

Let's say I want to convert a Double x to a Decimal y. There's a lot of ways to do that:

1. var y = Convert.ToDecimal(x); // Dim y = Convert.ToDecimal(x)
2. var y = new Decimal(x); // Dim y = new Decimal(x)
3. var y = (decimal)x; // Dim y = CType(x, Decimal)
4. -- no C# equivalent -- // Dim y = CDec(x)

Functionally, all of the above do the same thing (as far as I can tell). Other than personal taste and style, is there a particular reason to choose one option over the other?

EDIT: This is the IL generated by compiling the three C# options in a Release configuration:

1. call valuetype [mscorlib]System.Decimal [mscorlib]System.Convert::ToDecimal(float64)
--> which calls System.Decimal::op_Explicit(float64)

[Code]....
