I am new to looking up coordinates, etc.
However, I have some coordinates that I want to look for, but they are in MGA.
I am wanting to look up these coordinates on Google Earth and then try and export them to my vms.
From what I can discover Google Earth does not like these MGA coordinates and I have zero know how on trying to convert them to a readable coordinate to allow me to do the above.
Is anyone able to help?

The software that I use to convert from it to WGS 84 Web Mercator which Google uses as its coordinate system is ArcGIS Desktop.
