I went to the Perth caravan show last week. While having lunch amongst the stalls around the perimeter of the arena, and because this area is elevated, I could see over the roofs of the vans.

I could not find anything for coordinates in settings. However when I select coordinates, it gives me a format option. The last option is degrees, minutes, seconds. Which is the camps reference. The gps was set to the middle one. I have no idea what the top to are.
