Geocoding geocoding is the process of assigning geographic coordinates
(e.g. latitude-longitude) to street addresses, as well as other points and
features |

Latitude and
longitude halfway between the North Pole and the South Pole is an imaginary line, the equator. The equator goes around
the middle of Earth like a belt. It divides our planet into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere.
A number of imaginary lines are drawn around the globe parallel to the equator. These are called parallels of latitude. Another set of imaginary lines helps
us measure distance east and west. These are lines of longitude. Each line of longitude runs from the North Pole to the South Pole. These lines
are also called meridians |
| Latitude and
longitude latitude and longitude are spherical coordinates on the surface of the earth. Latitude is measured North or South of the Equator,
resulting in a range of -90 (S pole) to +90 (N pole) degrees. Longitude is measured East or West of Greenwich |

latitude and longitude
Latitude and longitude are angles that uniquely define points on a sphere |
| Latitude
and longitude any location on Earth is described by two numbers--its
latitude and its longitude. If a pilot or a ship's captain
wants to specify position on a map, these are the "coordinates" they would
use |
| Latitude and
longitude defined, part of
Maptools MapTools provides GPS users with the tools and knowledge to fully utilize geographic coordinates. MapTools produces grids, corner
rulers, roamers, and rulers to assist with plotting or measuring positions on many different scales of maps |
