[PATCH 1/2] Allow location coordinates in ISO6709 format

Tue Dec 31 14:14:38 UTC 2013


Allows location coordinates to be entered in ISO6709(2008)
 Annex D format. e.g. 50°40'46,461"N 95°48'26,533"W
 see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_6709#Representation_at_the_human_interface_.28Annex_D.29
 for suggested format.
