This article writes and shows you how to use the coordinate search function.

Information from the Coordinate Search

Coordinate search supports multiple reference systems.

’ ’ - space is supported as separator between elements
‘.’ - dot is the decimal separator

The following units are supported: m, km, ft, yd, mi;
Degrees are supported as Angular units: ‘°’, ‘deg’ or ‘degree’
(If unit is omit the default unit of the reference system is used)

Examples:
WGS84: 46.95°N 7.45°E = 46.95N 7.45E = 46.95 7.45 = 46.95° 7.45° = 46.95 deg 7.45 deg
GARS: 006BC27
MGRS: 32TLT 82 km 340 m = 32TLT 82000034
UTM: 32N 382km 5201km
BNG: TQ38 = TQ 30km 80km
