  1. Eastings and Northings are UTM Coordinates (Universal Transverse Mercator). These are different from Longitude and Latitude values that are in the degree, minute, second format.

  2. I found the following page: Converting UTM to Latitude and Longitude (Or Vice Versa) Steven Dutch, Natural and Applied Sciences, University of Wisconsin - Green Bay There are easy to understand formulas for you to use.
