The Nokia Chassis MIB tmnxChassisCoordinates object defines the system coordinates. This text string indicates the Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates of the location of the chassis.
Two-dimensional GPS positioning offers latitude and longitude information as a four dimensional vector:
direction, hours, minutes, seconds
where:
direction is one of the four basic values: N, S, W, E
hours ranges from 0 to 180 (for latitude) and 0 to 90 for longitude
minutes and seconds range from 0 to 60.
<W, 122, 56, 89> is an example of longitude and <N, 85, 66, 43> is an example of latitude.
System coordinates can be expressed in different notations; for example:
N 45 58 23, W 34 56 12
N37 37' 00 latitude, W122 22' 00 longitude
N36*39.246' W121*40.121
The system coordinates can be any ASCII printable text string up to 80 characters.
