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 Srinagar
The DMS coordinates are: 34°5'8.3'' N 74°48'20'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 34.08565°
LngO = 74.80555°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -34.08565°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 74.80555 - 180° = -105.19445°
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 Srinagar is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-34.08565, -105.19445)
In DMS format: 34°5'8.3'' N 74°48'20'' E .
