public double getDegrees()

parse

public static double parse(String distance)

Parse a distance in some kind of units, converting to geographical degrees. Note that the number and the unit should be separated by a single space only, or not separated at all. Supported units are "m", "km", "miles", and "deg", the last one meaning degrees with no conversion. For brevity "mi" = "miles" and "d" = "deg".
