Ankur's referenced URL was the mojo for positive magic if folks need to do this.  Also, provides the Google Map for verifying my place.  :)

Beefy "food for thought" Miracle energy to all. :)

Looking forward to having these incorporated :)
 
This is what I learnt about Lat/Long in school (which appears to work
correctly)
 
Greenwich = 0 Longitude. To the right is postive (India for example), to
the left is negative. Values = [-180,+180]
 
Equator = 0 Latitude. To the north is positive, to the south is
negative. Values = [-90,90]
 
I'm not sure what standard this is, they didn't go into that much detail
at school ;)
 
This is what this site uses[1], and should be the values in FAS
