How do I use the US Census Bureau Tiger Server maps?
Names of some roads and towns and features might be found by using the US Census Bureau Tiger Server, which is linked to from the link at the bottom of any of the county “Cemetery with GPS coordinates” pages, but even though the e link in the previous question above uses the Tiger Server, it still uses the degree-minute-second coordinates, which the Tiger Server does not normally use, but conversions to decimal degrees are available from the URL “Lat” and “Lon” when using a, c, and d in the question above. If you have not accessed the USGS site, then you will have to convert Minutes and Seconds to a decimal fraction. I am trying to convert the Degree-Minute-Second locations on all the cemetery pages to decimal degrees, which the Tiger Server normally uses. If I have not converted the coordinates you want to use, then there is an explanation and a conversion chart at http://MSGen.net/decimalconv.html . a. The map comes up with Washington, DC. Some “Layers” are already turned on, though
