function [degmin] = decdeg2degmin(decdeg)
%DECDEG2DEGMIN	Convert decimal degrees to degree minutes
%
%   Syntax:
%       degmin = DECDEG2DEGMIN(decdeg)
%
%   Description:
%       Utility to convert latitude and longitude coordinates from decimal 
%       degrees to degrees minutes
%
%   Inputs:
%       decdeg  N-by-1 vector of coordinates in decimal degrees 
%
%   Outputs:
%       degmin  N-by-2 matrix of coordinates in degrees minutes with 
%               degrees in the first column and decimal minutes in the 
%               second column
%
%   Examples:
%       decdeg = [30.4867; -118.9833];
%       degmin = decdeg2degmin(decdeg)
%       degmin =
%               30.0000     29.2020
%               -118.0000   58.9980
