Documentation Integer number of degrees, plus the angle direction. This element can be used for geographic Latitude and Longitude. For Latitude, the XML attribute direction can take the values "N" or "S", meaning North or South of the equator. For Longitude, direction can take the values "E" or "W", meaning East or West of the prime meridian. This element can also be used for other angles.
