I've been exploring the world of GPS recently. While I understand basic latitude and longitude from high school geography I'm still trying to understand the difference between DEC representation (i.e. 35.234085) vs what's supposed to be the same reading in DMS representation (37 degrees 14 minutes 02.70 seconds) and Degrees as Decimal....not sure exactly what that one is! All in all the whole subject is still quit confusing.
