Coordinates

GPS coordinates are a unique identifier of a precise geographic location on the earth, usually expressed in alphanumeric characters.Coordinates, in this context, are points of intersection in a grid system. GPS coordinates are usually expressed as the combination of latitude and longitude.

Latitude is a measure of degrees of distance from the equator, which is 0 degrees. The north and south poles are at 90 degrees in either direction. The prime meridian is 0 degrees longitude and the locations are measured according to 180 degrees east or west from that point.

Exercise 1: Complete the graph with the following words:
