7/20    What is the maximum and minimum GPS values possible? I'm asking so
        that I know whether to use short, double, or whatever type I need
        for a database. Thanks.
        \_ Lat can be -90 to +90, Long can be -180 to +180.  Useful precision
           is probably no more than 6 decimal places, so I generally just use
           DECIMAL(8,6) and DECIMAL(9,6) respectively.
           \_ Is it in deg, min, sec or decimal degrees?  -not op
              \_ I was assuming decimal degrees.
           \_ THANK YOU
