Latitude and longitude is a coordinate system that is used for locating any place on the globe. This is a very important skill to learn for geography. Key terms covered include the Equator, Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, Arctic & Antarctic Circles, the Prime Meridian (Greenwich), the antipodal meridian, the northern hemisphere, southern hemisphere, the western hemisphere and the eastern hemisphere.

Is it profoundly coincidental that when I lived with my Grandparents in Augusta Ks. in 1982 with bedroom at 37.675870 N lat then 40 years later now live in California with bedroom at 37.675870 N lat, same!?😱

Thanks! I got it. Crazy how minutes and seconds mean more than just the time but also the location.

+Nawas 59 degrees, 16 minutes and 51 seconds north, 15 degrees, 10 minutes and 58 seconds east. That puts you in a town called Orebo, Sweden.
