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 Bokombayevskoye

The DMS coordinates are: 42°7'3.7'' N 76°59'36'' E .

Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:

LatO = 42.11769°

LngO = 76.99332°

Step 2: Calculate the latitude

LatA = - LatO = -42.11769°

Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).

Step 3: Calculate the longitude

LngA = LngO ± 180° = 76.99332 - 180° = -103.00668°

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 Bokombayevskoye is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-42.11769, -103.00668)

In DMS format: 42°7'3.7'' N 76°59'36'' E .
