Longitude is a geographic coordinate that specifies the east-west position of a point on the Earth's surface. Points with the same longitude lie in lines running from the North Pole to the South Pole. By convention, one of these, the Prime Meridian, which passes through the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, England, establishes the position of zero degrees longitude. Hope that helps!
