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 Türi
The DMS coordinates are: 58°48'31'' N 25°25'57'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 58.80861°
LngO = 25.4325°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -58.80861°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 25.4325 - 180° = -154.5675°
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 Türi is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-58.80861, -154.5675)
In DMS format: 58°48'31'' N 25°25'57'' E .
