Are you just trying to split the string? If so:

declare @LatLng varchar(100)
set @LatLng = '33.0000;15.222222'

declare @Lat float
declare @Lng float

select @Lat = CAST(LEFT(@LatLng, charindex(';',@LatLng)-1) as float)
select @Lng = CAST(SUBSTRING(@LatLng, charindex(';',@LatLng)+1, LEN(@LatLng)-charindex(';',@LatLng)) as float)

select @Lat as Latitude, @Lng as Longitude
