We want 3 dedicated input fields for:

SteffenME commented 1 year ago

If we have 3 fields each for the coorodinates we can handle any format.

like degrees Minutes Seconds
45.23356
45 14.013
45 14 0.082

would be all the same.

But i dont know if that is more or less convenient for the user. Maybe not most intuitive

svenseeberg commented 1 year ago

I like the idea. Reduces problems a lot.

Found these too resources about the topic:

I don't know which keyboard has no ° or ' character. User should buy a new keyboard if the key is missing.

SteffenME commented 1 year ago

Yeah its not really about who is missing which key.. The proposed method makes parsing very easy and i think its intuitive enough for the user.. Also not having to type ° and ' and " is convenient

what about the "N" / "E" ? we need another field for this

SteffenME commented 1 year ago

Yes, could be standard filled with N and E..
