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 Depok
The DMS coordinates are: 6°24'0'' S 106°49'7'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = -6.4°
LngO = 106.81861°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = 6.4°
Since the latitude is negative (south direction), the antipode must be positive (north direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 106.81861 - 180° = -73.18139°
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 Depok is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (6.4, -73.18139)
In DMS format: 6°24'0'' S 106°49'7'' E .
