// Set coordinates together
$gpsPoint->set('41.9, 12.5'); // Rome

// Set separated coordinates for Empire State Building
$this->point->setLatitude('40°44′ 54.3″N');
$this->point->setLongitude('73° 59′9″ W');

echo $gpsPoint->get(Point::FORMAT_DD); // Default if none especified
echo $gpsPoint->get(Point::FORMAT_DM);
echo $gpsPoint->get(Point::FORMAT_DMS);

Available formats

Any of the following formats can be used to set and retrieve GPS coordinates:, _(*5)

• Decimal Degrees (DD) Point::FORMAT_DD, eg: '41.9,12.5'
• Decimal Minutes (DM) Point::FORMAT_DM, eg: '48°0.858277778N 2°0.2945E'
• Degrees Minutes Seconds (DMS) Point::FORMAT_DMS, eg: '40°44′54.3″N,73°59′9″W'

Considerations

When setting coordinates spaces and comma are completely optional, there is no difference between , 40° 44′ 54.3″ N, 73° 59′ 9″ W and 40°44′54.3″N73°59′9″W, _(*6)

When setting coordinates you can use ′ or ' for minutes and ″ or " for seconds (review raw document to see the difference between them), _(*7)

When retrieving coordinates won't have any spaces, _(*8)

When retrieving coordinates ' and " will be used for minutes and seconds. Coordinates will be comma separated, _(*9)
