How It Works

Earthpoint converts between all major WGS84 coordinate systems instantly, with no rounding errors and configurable precision.

Getting Started

STEP 1

Select Input System

Click the tab for the coordinate format you're starting with — UTM, DD, DMS, DDM, or MGRS.

STEP 2

Enter Coordinates

Type your coordinates in the input column. All other columns update in real time.

STEP 3

Paste from Spreadsheet

Copy rows directly from Excel or Google Sheets and paste into any input cell. Multiple rows are populated automatically. Press Ctrl+Z to undo a paste.

STEP 4

View on Map

Hover a row and click the pin icon to see it on an interactive OpenStreetMap.

STEP 5

Batch Import

Upload a CSV or Excel file and map columns to fields. Convert hundreds of points at once.

STEP 6

Export Results

Download your results as CSV or KML for use in GIS software, Google Earth, and more.

STEP 7

Save Projects

Save your entire table state as a named project with an optional project number and name.

STEP 8

Reload & Search Projects

Open any saved project from the Saved Projects page. Search by file name or project number, and export or delete projects.

STEP 9

Output Settings

Customise decimal precision per coordinate system and choose your preferred CSV column layout (separated, combined, or fully merged).

Coordinate Systems

UTM

Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM)

A grid-based coordinate system dividing the world into 60 zones. Uses Easting and Northing in meters. Widely used in surveying and military navigation.

32U 698765.123E 5710432.456N
DD

Decimal Degrees (DD)

The most common digital format. Latitude and longitude as simple decimal numbers. Positive = North/East, negative = South/West.

51.507400, -0.127800
DMS

Degrees Minutes Seconds (DMS)

Traditional geographic notation. Each degree is divided into 60 minutes and each minute into 60 seconds.

51° 30' 26.64" N, 0° 7' 40.08" W
DDM

Degrees Decimal Minutes (DDM)

Hybrid format used in aviation and nautical navigation. Degrees are whole numbers; minutes are expressed as decimals.

51° 30.4440' N, 0° 7.6680' W
MGRS

Military Grid Reference System (MGRS)

An alphanumeric grid reference used by NATO military forces. Derived from UTM with letter grid designators for 100km squares.

UTM Global Zone & Hemisphere

When all your UTM points share the same zone or hemisphere, enable the Global Zone and/or Global Hemisphere toggles. This syncs the value across every row so you only need to enter it once — ideal for batch conversions within a single UTM zone.

Same Zone

Set one UTM zone number (1–60) for all rows. Individual zone fields are hidden when this is active.

Same Hemisphere

Set North or South once for the entire table. Per-row hemisphere inputs are replaced by the global value.

Output Settings

Decimal Precision

Registered users can adjust output precision per coordinate system:

DD

4, 6, or 8 decimal places

8dp ≈ 1mm accuracy

DMS

0, 2, or 3 decimal seconds

3dp ≈ sub-millimeter

UTM

0, 1, 2, or 3 decimal places

3dp = 1mm resolution

CSV Export Format

Choose how each system is structured in exported CSV files:

UTM — Separated

4 columns: Easting, Northing, Zone, Hemisphere

UTM — Combined with Lat Band

1 column: e.g. 56J 398000.000 5710000.000

DMS — Separated

8 columns: Deg/Min/Sec/Hem for Lat & Lon

DMS — Lat+Lon cols

2 columns: formatted DMS string per axis

DMS — Fully combined

1 column: Lat, Lon as a single string

MGRS — Full / Split

1 column full string, or 4 split columns (GZD, 100k ID, Easting, Northing)

Configure these under Output Settings.
