Hello,
I am looking for a formula to convert GPS data from the format XX.YYY.ZZZ to degrees, format 00.0000000000, or a formula to convert angle units from radians to degrees.
Thank you in advance for any help provided on this subject.
Best regards.

Hello,
Your first format is undoubtedly DMS (degrees - minutes - seconds), and not radians! The principle of conversion is similar to hours - minutes - seconds.
So D_with_decimals = X + Y/60 + Z/3600
