Two types of Location Relative Location Absolute Location Found by using Latitude and Longitude

Latitude Run West to East Parallel, they do not touch Measure North and South of Equator 0-90 Degrees North & South

Longitude Run North and South Touch at North and South Poles Measure East and West of Prime Meridian 0-180 Degrees East and West
