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 Bonriki Village
The DMS coordinates are: 1°22'50.9'' N 173°8'19.9'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 1.38081°
LngO = 173.13887°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -1.38081°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 173.13887 - 180° = -6.86113°
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 Bonriki Village is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-1.38081, -6.86113)
In DMS format: 1°22'50.9'' N 173°8'19.9'' E .
