13. Globes-Hemispheres To better locate a place on Earth Geographers use a system of imaginary lines the crisscross the globe. Like an X/Y graph. To better locate a place on Earth Geographers use a system of imaginary lines the crisscross the globe. Like an X/Y graph. The equator, a Latitudinal line, circles the middle of the Earth. The equator, a Latitudinal line, circles the middle of the Earth. Everything North of the Equator is in the Northern Hemisphere. Everything North of the Equator is in the Northern Hemisphere. Everything south of the equator is in the Southern hemisphere. Everything south of the equator is in the Southern hemisphere.

14. Equator

15. Globes-Hemispheres cont. Another imaginary line runs from north to south. Another imaginary line runs from north to south. This line of 0* Longitude is called the Prime Meridian. This line of 0* Longitude is called the Prime Meridian. Everything east of the Prime Meridian for 180 degrees is the Eastern hemisphere. Everything east of the Prime Meridian for 180 degrees is the Eastern hemisphere. Everything west of the Prime Meridian for 180 degrees is the Western hemisphere. Everything west of the Prime Meridian for 180 degrees is the Western hemisphere.

17. Latitude and Longitude Lines of latitude and longitude form a grid system of lines that help locate places on Earth. Lines of latitude and longitude form a grid system of lines that help locate places on Earth. Latitudinal lines, like the equator, circle the Earth and measure the distance North or South. (Latitude is Flatitude!) Latitudinal lines, like the equator, circle the Earth and measure the distance North or South. (Latitude is Flatitude!) Longitudinal lines, like the Prime Meridian, circle the Earth from pole to pole and measure how far East or West. (Longitude is Long-gitude) Longitudinal lines, like the Prime Meridian, circle the Earth from pole to pole and measure how far East or West. (Longitude is Long-gitude)

18. East, West, North, South on the Earth The N tells us we’re in the northern hemisphere. The N tells us we’re in the northern hemisphere. The S tells us we’re in the southern hemisphere. The S tells us we’re in the southern hemisphere. The E tells us that we’re east of the Prime Meridian in the eastern hemisphere. The E tells us that we’re east of the Prime Meridian in the eastern hemisphere. The W tells us that we’re west of the Prime Meridian in the western hemisphere. The W tells us that we’re west of the Prime Meridian in the western hemisphere. (N, W) (N, E) (S, W) (S, E)

19. What is Latitude? Latitude is the distance from the equator along the Y axis. Latitude is the distance from the equator along the Y axis. All points along the equator have a value of 0 degrees latitude. All points along the equator have a value of 0 degrees latitude. North pole = 90°N North pole = 90°N South pole = 90°S South pole = 90°S Values are expressed in terms of degrees. Values are expressed in terms of degrees. Y X 90°S 90°N

20. What is Longitude? Longitude is the distance from the prime meridian along the X axis. Longitude is the distance from the prime meridian along the X axis. All points along the prime meridian have a value of 0 degrees longitude. All points along the prime meridian have a value of 0 degrees longitude. The earth is divided into two parts, or hemispheres, of east and west longitude. The earth is divided into two parts, or hemispheres, of east and west longitude. Y X 180°W 180°E

21. What is Longitude? The earth is divided into 360 equal slices (meridians) The earth is divided into 360 equal slices (meridians) 180 west and 180 east of the prime meridian 180 west and 180 east of the prime meridian Y X 180°W 180°E

22. So Where is (0,0)? The origin point (0,0) is where the equator intersects the prime meridian. The origin point (0,0) is where the equator intersects the prime meridian. (0,0) is off the western coast of Africa in the Atlantic Ocean. (0,0) is off the western coast of Africa in the Atlantic Ocean.

25. Absolute location The grid system formed by latitude and longitude makes it possible to find the exact location of a place. Only one place can be found at one point where a line of latitude crosses a line of longitude. By using degrees and minutes (points between the degrees) people can pinpoint the precise spot the lines cross The grid system formed by latitude and longitude makes it possible to find the exact location of a place.
