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 Hammonton
The DMS coordinates are: 39°38'11.4'' N 74°48'8.6'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 39.63651°
LngO = -74.80239°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -39.63651°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -74.80239 + 180° = 105.19761°
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 Hammonton is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-39.63651, 105.19761)
In DMS format: 39°38'11.4'' N 74°48'8.6'' W.
