Hello, thanx.

I tried several times to put the longitude and the latitude but it said that my location was wrong.

This the the location of the village

45° 26′ 55″ North
0° 11′ 59 West

I tried to put like this : 45.2655N & 0.1159W

Where was i wrong?

    Thanks, they should just be put in as numbers
    eg positive number for N
    negative number for W

    45° 26′ 55″ North
    0° 11′ 59 West
    converts to
    Lat: 45.448611N Long: 0.199722W or
    45.448611 -0.199722

    I will add a link to the coordinate converter here:

    Thanks, perhaps you have some more sites to contribute?
