Translate Surveyor's Nad83 Deg/Min/Sec to Nad83 Decimal

[Anonymous]

Hi, I have points from a surveyor that are in Nad83 (Deg/Min/Sec) that I want to digitize into my drawings that have the same Nad83 Coordinate. The problem I have is, I need to translate the Deg/Min/Sec to Decimal so that I can input.

Is this possible?

Thanks.

What form are the points in?  on paper, dwg file, shp file?

You can use 'bd to manually enter the info.    deg.minsec    ie 25.2436

if the a dwg file are the points already located correctly oin the NAD83 system?  draw lines between them may be enough
