How to calculate the antipodal point?
The antipode can be calculated by understanding the geographic coordinates and applying simple formulas. We will use the following variables:
- LatO: Latitude at the origin point.
- LngO: Longitude at the origin point.
- LatA: Latitude at the antipodal point.
- LngA: Longitude at the antipodal point.
Step 1: Obtain the geographic coordinates of Ituzaingó
The DMS coordinates are: 27°35'6.1'' S 56°41'13.5'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = -27.58504°
LngO = -56.68707°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = 27.58504°
Since the latitude is negative (south direction), the antipode must be positive (north direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -56.68707 + 180° = 123.31293°
Since the longitude is negative, we sum 180° to ensure the final value lies between (-180, 180). If it were the other way around, we would subtract 180° for the same reason.
Result:
The antipode of Ituzaingó is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (27.58504, 123.31293)
In DMS format: 27°35'6.1'' S 56°41'13.5'' W.
