I'm trying to plot out GPS data that is given to me in Hour Minute Second degree format. Will GLatLng take it in this form or do I need to convert it first. Having a hard time finding anything on the internet about this. If it can take it in this format an example would be much appreciated.

As far as I know it does not accept that format, but its really easy to convert it, just do the math:

var = hour+(((minute*60)+(second))/3600);
