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 Ústí nad Labem
The DMS coordinates are: 50°39'38.5'' N 14°1'56.2'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 50.6607°
LngO = 14.03227°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -50.6607°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 14.03227 - 180° = -165.96773°
Since the longitude is positive, we subtract 180° to ensure the final value lies between (-180, 180). If it were the other way around, we would sum 180° for the same reason.
Result:
The antipode of Ústí nad Labem is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-50.6607, -165.96773)
In DMS format: 50°39'38.5'' N 14°1'56.2'' E .
