Reply To: Upgrade to use Google Maps field type

So I have done some checking and when I convert the field to a text field, the values are shown like this:

52.402227;-1.44104

so the format is Latitude;Longitude.

I checked and with the Google Maps field option, the data is stored like this:

a:3:{s:7:”address”;s:7:”CV3 2TX”;s:3:”lat”;s:10:”52.4022271″;s:3:”lng”;s:17:”-1.44103999999993″;}

I have post codes for all of the locations, so is there a way of running a converter like script that will format the lat;long values in a way that makes them readable by the new Google Maps field?

Thanks

Thanks
