How do I convert convert degrees of latitude to miles (or kilometers) ? (#14295)
1 foot = 0.3048 meter 1 international nautical mile = 1.1508 statute miles = 1.852 kilometers = .99933 U.S nautical mile (obsolete) 1� latitude = 69.047 statute miles = 60 nautical miles = 111.12 kilometers For longitude the conversion is the same as latitude except the value is multiplied by the cosine of the latitude. feedback form by Budster edited by Axilla last modified: 2006-08-31 07:09:24
