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 Pančevo
The DMS coordinates are: 44°52'18.4'' N 20°38'30'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 44.87177°
LngO = 20.64167°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -44.87177°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 20.64167 - 180° = -159.35833°
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 Pančevo is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-44.87177, -159.35833)
In DMS format: 44°52'18.4'' N 20°38'30'' E .
