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 Klimavichy
The DMS coordinates are: 53°36'28.4'' N 31°57'31'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 53.6079°
LngO = 31.9586°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -53.6079°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 31.9586 - 180° = -148.0414°
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 Klimavichy is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-53.6079, -148.0414)
In DMS format: 53°36'28.4'' N 31°57'31'' E .
