Hi @adityaalviori,

By default, the library parses the lat/long coordinates to float, so you can just use the Latitude and Longitude fields of the parsed sentence. See the example below:

sentence := "$GPRMC,220516,A,5133.82,N,00042.24,W,173.8,231.8,130694,004.2,W*70"
s, _ := nmea.Parse(sentence)
m := s.(nmea.GPRMC)
fmt.Printf("Latitude decimal: %f\n", m.Latitude)
fmt.Printf("Longitude decimal: %f\n", m.Longitude)

Output:

Latitude decimal: 51.563667
Longitude decimal: -0.704000

Let us know if this is what you are looking for. Thanks.
