I have a .csv which I am trying to geocode in Pro. The rows I highlighted are the formatted cells. The columns to the left of each highlighted column is the original format.

I brought the table into Pro, and tried to display the XY data on the newly formatted cells, and the points do not land within our County (and they are supposed to). I confirmed the coordinate system is the same as the map.

Below is a screenshot of how off the points geocoded.

I tried changing the coordinate system, and that did not help.

Any suggestions? I need this data to geocode correctly to do some analysis.

Oh this is fantastic, I would much rather just pull it into my project than try to dig in and figure this out, thank you! I attempted to download it from the NBI web app (National Bridge Inventory - Bridge Inspection - Safety - Bridges & Structures - Federal Highway Admi..., but I could not find an option besides downloading the actual table. But I honestly didn't dig much further into other options.

Thank you again!

So to Dan's point, you'll need to convert S & U to decimal degrees using the following formula - 

dd = deg + min/60 + sec/3600

Once you parse out the data correctly.
