v. t. e. A geographic coordinate system ( GCS) is a spherical or geodetic coordinate system for measuring and communicating positions directly on Earth as latitude and longitude. [ 1] It is the simplest, oldest and most widely used of the various spatial reference systems that are in use, and forms the basis for most others.
ISO 6709, Standard representation of geographic point location by coordinates, is the international standard for representation of latitude, longitude and altitude for geographic point locations. The first edition ( ISO 6709:1983) was developed by ISO/IEC JTC 1 /SC 32. Later the standard was transferred to ISO/TC211, Geographic information ...
Latitude#4 (45.68) < map min(53.74). Processing continues, with that marker actually placed off-map, and all latitude/longitude parameters are checked. Only degrees of latitude/longitude are checked, so a value of 63 minutes would be valid to indicate 1 extra degree + 3 minutes, and setting lon_min=200 could still place a marker off-map (right ...
The Military Grid Reference System ( MGRS) [ 1] is the geocoordinate standard used by NATO militaries for locating points on Earth. The MGRS is derived from the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) grid system and the Universal Polar Stereographic (UPS) grid system, but uses a different labeling convention. The MGRS is used as geocode for the ...
Location map of USA Midwest. / 42.825; -92.25. Module:Location map/data/USA Midwest is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of USA Midwest. The markers are placed by latitude and longitude coordinates on the default map or a similar map image.
Location map of Australia and New Zealand. / -28.65; 144.2. Module:Location map/data/Australia and New Zealand is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of Australia and New Zealand. The markers are placed by latitude and longitude coordinates on the default map or a similar map image.
Latitude is given as an angle that ranges from −90° at the south pole to 90° at the north pole, with 0° at the Equator. Lines of constant latitude, or parallels, run east–west as circles parallel to the equator. Latitude and longitude are used together as a coordinate pair to specify a location on the surface of the Earth.
