LATITUDE AND LONGITUDE
Finding your place in this world….

Latitude
The set of lines crossing the Earth’s surface
horizontally, Circling east and west.
Each line of latitude is always an equal distance from
the next.
They are also known as parallels. All latitude lines are
parallel to each other.

USING LATITUDE
Lines of latitude are numbered based on how far north or south they are from an imaginary line called the equator
This line circles the Earth exactly halfway between the NP and SP.
The equator’s latitude degree is 00
. There are 90 degrees between it and each of the poles.
Area between the equator and NP is “north” latitude (22
0
N)
Area between the equator and SP is “south” latitude (22
0
S)

Longitude
A set of lines that run vertically along Earth’s
surface from the North Pole to the South Pole

Lines of longitude are numbered based on how
far east or west they are from another imaginary
line.
This line is called the Prime Meridian.
Prime Meridian’s longitude degree is 00
.
There are 1800
of longitude east of the PM and
1800
degrees west of it.
Area east of the PM is known as “east” longitude.
(1200
E)
Area west of the PM is known as “west” longitude.
(1200
W)

GLOBAL GRID When lines of latitude and longitude cross a grid is
formed. The grid is used to located certain places
on earth

DIRECTION
The other part needed to locate places on
Earth is direction.
Cardinal directions are: north, south, east,
and west.
Intermediate directions are: northeast,
southeast, northwest, and southwest. They
are located midway between the cardinal
directions.

PRIME MERIDIAN & INTERNATIONAL
DATE LINE
The prime meridian does not circle the globe as
the equator does.
The PM runs from the NP to SP
At 1800
on the other side of the globe the
meridian is called the international date line.

HEMISPHERES
The earth can be divided into halves. Each of these
halves is called a hemisphere.

HEMISPHERES AT THE EQUATOR
The ½ north of the
equator is called the
northern hemisphere
The ½ south of the
equator is called the
southern hemisphere

HEMISPHERES AT PRIME MERIDIAN AND
INTERNATIONAL DATE LINE
Earth can also be divided into hemispheres at
the circle formed by the prime meridian and
International date line
The ½ east of the prime meridian is called the
eastern hemisphere.
The ½ west of the prime meridian is called the
western hemisphere.
