I have just recently updated the format of the form used to generate the sundial. If you are having problems, you can access the old page . A height of 0.5 inches is recommended. Default values are for the Kirkwood Observatory located on the campus of Indiana University, Bloomington. Positive values represent angles north of the equator, and negative values are angles south of the equator.
Positive values represent longitude values east of the Greenwich meridian.
Negative values represent longitude values west of the Greenwich meridian. Positive values represent longitude values east of the Greenwich meridian. Negative values represent longitude values west of the Greenwich meridian. If you are near the equator, you might try a larger gnomon than the default. For mid to large latitudes a value of 0.5 inches is highly recommended.
