You can determine your location in different ways:

• You ﬁnd a table with the coordinates of all US counties in

the chapter ”Position Table”. Select a town close to you

and enter its coordinates.

• If you possess a GPS navigation device, e.g. in your car

or a mobile one, you can take over its location information

and then you have your exact position.

• You can also get the exact coordinates via the Internet.

It provides numerous pages which contain information on

navigation.

Please consider the fact that the data for sunrise or sunset

are only exact at the sea or for a totally even landscape. Hills,

high forests etc. alter these values for your location.

Even for ideal positions the data may vary by some minutes,

because an approximation formula is used for the calculation.
