Web Map Search Option For DMS

ToddHill — Wed, 10 Jul 2024 11:23:03 GMT

I'm working on a Web Map to be used for search and rescue efforts in a watershed region. This map will be shared with dispatch so they can use it in the event of an emergency. We have several posts installed throughout the watershed at certain trail intersections with decimal degrees, and degrees minutes seconds stamped on a plate that is attached to each post. The search option for GPS coordinates works great when entering decimal degrees coordinates but when trying to enter Degrees, minutes, seconds I cant seem to find a way to input the correct format so the map zooms to that location.

Thank you in advance for any help,

Todd

Can you share the map to a group and invite russell_jsapi and I can take a look.

Because of the use I cant share it publicly. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction to search for DMS coordinates.

If its using the geocoder and not feature search these are the formats that are supported
