Hello group,

Can you confirm the GEMINI convention used to set the latitude and longitude
coordinates ?
Here is what it is written into the Gemini 2 Quick Start Guide :
- Longitude: positive values for West longitude, negative values for East
longitude.
- Latitude : positive for North latitudes, negative values for East latitudes.

I would like a confirmation because the convention for the longitude is exactly
the opposite convention used everywhere which said positive value for East
longitude (after the Greenwich meridian) et negative for West longitude.

Thank you.

No, I've changed it. Eastern longitudes are positive, Western negative.
Also. I'm just changing the timezone settings the same way: west (behind UTC) negative.

We have to change this in the Quickstart guide.
