Issue converting degree minutes paired with decimal degrees #14

Closed DrennanRE closed 11 months ago

DrennanRE commented 11 months ago

I am passing ["40° 12.3456 N", "76.9119° W"] and see the following error invalid decimal coordinate format. Is this due to the mixing of coordinate types? Does this project currently support multiple formats in one coordinate pair?

This is the expected behaviour, the format of the latitude and longitude need to be the same. It assumes that if not then there is high likelihood of an error in how the coordinates were captured.
