Grid
Lines that run up and down on a map are called "longitude lines" or "meridians." These lines help indicate the east-west position or direction of a location on the Earth's surface.
Lines of latitude are used on a map or globe. They are the lines that run horizontally or left to right, while longitude lines run vertically or up and down.
The thin lines that run across a map are called longitude and latitude lines. Longitude lines run north to south, while latitude lines run east to west. These lines help in pinpointing specific locations on the Earth's surface.
It is called a grid system (or map coordinates), and is used to identify locations on the map. It is made of latitude and longitude lines. The latitude lines are also called parallels and they run west to east. Longitude lines, also known as meridians, run north to south.
The lines on a map that run north-south are called meridians of longitude, and the lines that run east-west are called parallels of latitude. These lines help to indicate the location and coordinates of different places on Earth.
Those lines are called lines of latitude. They are also known as parallels as they run parallel to the equator.
The lines on a map that form a grid system are called latitude and longitude lines. Latitude lines run horizontally and measure distance north and south of the equator, while longitude lines run vertically and measure distance east and west of the Prime Meridian.

Meridians of longitude run north and south. Parallels of latitude run east and west.
The lines that run east and west are called latitude lines. The lines that run north and south are called longitude lines. Together, they form a grid that can be used to locate any point on the Earth.
Vertical lines on a map are also called lines of longitude or meridians. These lines run from the North Pole to the South Pole and are used to measure the east-west position of a location on Earth. The prime meridian, located at 0 degrees longitude, is the starting point for measuring these lines.
They are sometimes called "parallels of latitude", or just "latitude lines". The east-west lines on the map measure the latitude in degrees north or south of the equator.
