What else can I help you with?
How are longitude and latitude lines used to locate points on earth?
They are used to locate a certain place on a map.
What are the lines of latitude and longitude used?
They are used to locate a certain place on a map.
What do coordinates mean?
Geographers and sailors created a system of imaginary lines to locate places on the globe. One set of lines runs east and west, parallel with the equator. The other set of lines divide the earth into sections from one pole to the other. If you know which latitude line and which longitude line runs across a given place, you can find that place on a map by looking at the longitude and latitude lines on a map.
What is the difference between map grid and global grid?
A global grid uses a system of lines of latitude and longitude which allows you to locate any place on Earth with a simple number code and a map grid uses a a system of imaginary to divide up space on a map and you could locate a place that is either in or local to what place the map is representing.

What are the imaginary lines on the globe and map?
The horizontal lines are called latitudes and the vertical lines are called longitudes.
Lines used to locate palces on a map which are parallel to the equator?
They are lines of latitude.
What do you call imaginary lines that separate states on a map?
State boundary lines State delimitation lines. State demarcation lines. shiter
The imaginary east west lines used by geographers as references on a map are called?
latitude!
How can you locate a place?
latitude and langitude or look for the place in the map
What is the imaginary horizontal lines that go the same way as the equator?
The set of imaginary lines that are all parallel to the equator are the parallels of latitude. Whether they're horizontal or not depends on how you hold your map.
What tells you the subject or type of map?
What is the constist if imaginary lines that help us determine location
