Breeding bird lat lon #7

Closed timcdlucas closed 8 years ago

I've been looking at the breeding bird data. I'm completely stuck trying to get their "Lat" and "Lon" values to correspond to actual latitude and longitude. Dunno if anyone happens to know more about how they dealt with this data in the first place?

Currently the lat values range from about -1.5 to 1.5 and the lon values between -1.2 and 1.2 or so.

The grids are apparently 25km squares.
