New Post: need a kick

$

I am trying to plot some points on a map, taken online from Google Maps, Bing, etc. The coordinates in my database are lat/long ie 53,-120 such as you see from a GPS or Googleearth.

The points draw and a layer is being created BUT they are all around the map point 0,0 (equator, Greenwich) . The coordinates from the map when using any of the providers are very LARGE numbers (13277607.00, 6951393.00) and thus my GPS points are all very tiny.

How can I change the map to use what I consider to be standard coordinates or alternately, how can I convert my database entries?

There is an example I have followed to create a FeatureSet from an Excel file, and it appears they are using the same style as I use, ie 53, -119

I must have missed something obviously simple, so that is why I am requesting a kick.
