A bit of help in geocoordinates

Rhodes · 05-31-11, 01:58 PM

Need help with this:

Possibly many of you know about geocaching; today 2 friends of mine show me a one cache that has two codes to decifer to find the coordinates. The first code was in brainf*ck language and then the second one has the coordinates like this S 40º E 171º and says to do the antipodes of that but with this (180º= 171 59.1000).

This last one is the help I need. Anyone know what kind of coordinates this is? My idea was the 180º be a bearing.
