GPS SPOTS

Hey peoples,

 

I was hoping someone might be able to help me. My boss has got me putting all his GPS spots that are hand written in his little book onto his computer. But the spots are missing the last digit. Now someone has told me that is because they added an extra digit to the coordinates sometime ago so maybe these spots are from before that time. Would that be true?? If so how do i covert them to the new 16 digit coordinate??

 

Hope someone can help

 

Cheers

HAHA i might just do that

HAHA i might just do that with how much work is involved with converting them and typing them all into his comp. He honestly has no idea on how much work is involved in it. There is around 1000 spots that i need to convert and enter. Ok i tell you guys what. Who likes to go fishing at steep point? I will give up a few spots for there which looking on C-map are really easy to get to. Only because if it wasnt for this site then i wouldnt of known how to convert them. So i think that is a fair exchange
