15.4 Latitude and Longitude for Dark Stores
The most accurate way is to store coordinates for each dark store. Get them from the store master data or a maps application (right-click the location). Always keep decimal degrees with enough precision (4–6 decimals).
| Store ID | Store Name | Area | City | Latitude | Longitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BLK-PUN-KOT-01 | Blinkit Kothrud Hub | Kothrud | Pune | 18.507 | 73.807 |
| BLK-PUN-HIN-01 | Blinkit Hinjewadi Hub | Hinjewadi | Pune | 18.591 | 73.738 |
| BLK-NGP-DHP-01 | Blinkit Dharampeth Hub | Dharampeth | Nagpur | 21.139 | 79.063 |
| BLK-NSK-CRD-01 | Blinkit College Road Hub | College Road | Nashik | 20.007 | 73.763 |
| BLK-KOP-RJP-01 | Blinkit Rajarampuri Hub | Rajarampuri | Kolhapur | 16.699 | 74.237 |
| BLK-SOL-HTG-01 | Blinkit Hotgi Road Hub | Hotgi Road | Solapur | 17.649 | 75.920 |
| BLK-SAM-CID-01 | Blinkit CIDCO Hub | CIDCO | Sambhaji Nagar | 19.877 | 75.365 |

Latitude vs longitude
Maharashtra is at about 15.6° to 22° North latitude and 72.6° to 80.9° East longitude (रेखांश). If your bubbles appear in the ocean or in another country, you have probably swapped the two columns, or the values were read as text.
Ravindra Bagale's Tip
Friends, many students store latitude and longitude as text, or rounded to two decimals, so bubbles stack up or land about a kilometre away. Keep them as decimal numbers with four to six decimal places and set the data categories Latitude and Longitude. Practise, and it will feel very easy.

मित्रांनो, बरेच students latitude आणि longitude text म्हणून, किंवा दोन decimals पर्यंत round करून साठवतात, त्यामुळे bubbles एकावर एक येतात किंवा साधारण एक किलोमीटर दूर पडतात. त्या चार ते सहा decimal places असलेल्या decimal numbers म्हणून ठेवा आणि Latitude आणि Longitude data categories set करा. Practice करा, मग एकदम सोपं वाटेल.
Ravindra Bagale's Tip – हिंदी
दोस्तों, बहुत से students latitude और longitude को text के रूप में, या दो decimals तक round करके रखते हैं, जिससे bubbles एक के ऊपर एक आ जाते हैं या लगभग एक किलोमीटर दूर गिरते हैं. इन्हें चार से छह decimal places वाले decimal numbers रखो और Latitude और Longitude data categories set करो. Practice करो, फिर बहुत आसान लगेगा.
