GPS coordinates for Hank's

[caveat lector]

I just purchased one of those GPS units, and would like to calculate how far I am from my Home away from Home. I'm hoping someone has the coordinates for Hank's, but I would be happy with anywhere on property.

Does anyone know a website that lists the GPS coordinates around Disneyworld.

Approximately 81°32.0' degrees west longitude , 28°22.6' degrees north latitude.

You should be able to find it on Mapquest, or the maps section at Yahoo. We find the gps invaluable for our trips down to the world. Not for planning the route - I know that by heart ! It just helps to break it into manageable chunks, and to know how much farther and how long to the next significant point.

I checked my GPS to see if I had saved any waypoints at OKW, but unfortunately hadn't.

I do have the front balcony/porch at BWV if that'll do.

North 28 degrees, 22.001 minutes
West 81 degrees, 33.367 minutes

You can convert decimal minutes to seconds if your GPS requires that type of input instead.

According to my mapping software, the circle intersection at OKW (where you turn left for HH, right for Miller's, or straight for Peninsular/Turtle Pond/South Point) is at

N28 22.572, W81 32.153

Hope this helps

There is also a program called USAPhotoMaps, available from http://jdmcox.com/ . It allows you to download a set of Terraserver maps. You can then see the exact coordinates of the mouse pointer as you move it around the image. If you use a Garmin GPS, you can download waypoints and tracks to the maps also.

I don't have a waypoint for Hank's, but I have many OKW and WDW waypoints. If there's some interest, I can post a Garmin compatible or text waypoint file.
