I am looking on how to convert DMS attached to this question to something like 11.00999945. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Have a look at this post from a week ago:

+7
FYI: It's probably way too late now, but I just uploaded the DegreeFormatter to the FME Hub.
With this custom transformer, it should be easy to deal with these kind of problems. Handles multiple attributes at once and is able to work with latitude, longitude or latitude-longitude coordinates without having to use regular expressions (although it does use them under the hood ;)).
