Hello

I have some GPS data from a dashcam which contains a strange coordinate system which i have never sen before, I am guessing it is decimal degrees but can not be certain. Does anyone have any ideas as to what it is and more importantly how to convert it to British National Grid.

Thanks in advance

Andy

If it is UK it looks like N 51 degrees, 01.0869 minutes and w 001 degrees, 04.9518 minutes

That seems to be in the right place, using WGS84 it would put it here:
