According to geofiled API:

Supports entering data as both Decimal Degrees (122.340932) and Degrees-Minutes-Seconds (-123° 49' 55.2" W). The Degrees-Minutes-Seconds input is very tolerant of inconsistent input.

So I will have to debug it, but it works with D.DD positive for northern hemisphere and negative for western.

Well thanks to my pal Patrick Hayes, and request for help here: #1472182: I need to assign DMS programatically,
I have rewritten this code and it now automagically converts DMS to DD on the fly.
This is fixed as of Commit 181b0ef on 7.x-1.x
