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 Barletta
The DMS coordinates are: 41°18'51.4'' N 16°16'53.9'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 41.31429°
LngO = 16.28165°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -41.31429°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 16.28165 - 180° = -163.71835°
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 Barletta is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-41.31429, -163.71835)
In DMS format: 41°18'51.4'' N 16°16'53.9'' E .
