You may also enter decimal lat/long in Google Maps (west long negative):
34.51556, -112.08500
instead of :
34º 30' 56"N 112º 5' 6"W
I do this frequently.
If you right click on a map point, and click "what's here", you get the
decimal format lat/long.
The coordinates appear about 200 feet east of South Old Cherry Road in the
Google Map.
For highest accuracy in Google Maps, the Geodetic System Datum must be
WGS84:
