The antipode can be calculated by understanding the geographic coordinates and applying simple formulas. We will use the following variables:
Step 1: Obtain the geographic coordinates of Mart’q’opi
The DMS coordinates are: 41°47'14.4'' N 45°1'23'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 41.78733°
LngO = 45.02305°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -41.78733°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 45.02305 - 180° = -134.97695°
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 Mart’q’opi is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-41.78733, -134.97695)
In DMS format: 41°47'14.4'' N 45°1'23'' E .
