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 Utrera
The DMS coordinates are: 37°11'6.6'' N 5°46'51.3'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 37.18516°
LngO = -5.78093°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -37.18516°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -5.78093 + 180° = 174.21907°
Since the longitude is negative, we sum 180° to ensure the final value lies between (-180, 180). If it were the other way around, we would subtract 180° for the same reason.
Result:
The antipode of Utrera is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-37.18516, 174.21907)
In DMS format: 37°11'6.6'' N 5°46'51.3'' W.
