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 Braunau am Inn
The DMS coordinates are: 48°15'22.6'' N 13°2'36.3'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 48.25628°
LngO = 13.04343°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -48.25628°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 13.04343 - 180° = -166.95657°
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 Braunau am Inn is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-48.25628, -166.95657)
In DMS format: 48°15'22.6'' N 13°2'36.3'' E .
