Since a big chunk of the hits are in SK, I made that my priority for entering lat/longs. I'm happy to report that all the lat/longs for SK are now in the DB, except for the five places listed below that weren't in the GPS:
- Big River
- Caronport
- Emerald Park
- Martensville
- Quinton
Places I've never heard of (Nipawin or Earl Grey, for example) were in there.
Have fun!

That's great DR! FYI, Emerald Park is basically the same as White City (only a road separates the two). Caronport is only 21 km west of Moose Jaw. Martensville is only 12 km north of Saskatoon, and 10 km SW of Warman. Quinton is 9 km east of Raymore, and 8 km west of Punnichy. I don't know if that helps, but maybe using a neighbouring town for these would be close enough.
Martensville is just a few kms north of S'toon. I'll send you a reading on it in a few days. I may be going through Quinton next weekend. If I do, I'll get a reading there too. I had to look it up on a map also. The rest???
Big River: 53, 50' 00" N 107, 01' 00" W
Caronport: 50, 27' 00" N 105, 49' 00" W
Emerald Park: 53, 10' 50" N 106, 57' 45" W
Martensville: 52, 17' 00" N 106, 40' 00" W
Quinton: 51, 23' 00" N 104, 24' 00" W
Note: The first number is degrees, but I don't have the right key…
If anyone needs lat/longs for thier GPS, try this site for Canada:http://geonames.nrcan.gc.ca/english/cgndb.html. First query the name and then go to details and they have the co-ordinates listed there. Great site for setting up your GPS before a trip…
Thanks, IDJIT. Great to see someone become devoted so fast.
