Latitude and longitude are numbers that you can measure as close as you want
to the truth, but never exact.
Every point on Earth has a different set of coordinates. In principle, two pencil
dots on the same piece of paper have different coordinates. And to ask for a
set of coordinates that represents the location of an entire nation is especially
meaningless.
-- Panama occupies the range of 7.2028° - 9.6365° North latitude,
and 77.1586° - 83.0461° West longitude.
-- The Southwest end of Runway-04 at Aeropuerto Internacional Enrique Malek
just south of David is located at
8.3861° north latitude
82.4397° west longitude.
-- The north end of Runway-21R at Tocumen International Airport is
located at
9.0933° north latitude
79.3750° west longitude.
-- The center of the pitcher's mound at Roberto Mariano Bula Stadium
in Colon is located at
9.3566° north latitude
79.8959° west longitude.
-- The south end of the runway at Bahia Piñas airport, at Puerto Piña
on the south coast of Panama about 30 miles northwest of the border
with Colombia, is located at
7.5849° north latitude
78.1809° west longitude.
Other points in the country all have different coordinates.
The figures above are precise to within about 12 meters, and accurate to
within perhaps 25 meters. If you need it better than that, you'll need to
hire your own land survey.
What else can I help you with?
What is the purpose of the longitude and latitude lines?
To establish an exact position on the planet.
This is formed when the latitude and longitude lines meet?
An intersection of latitude and longitude lines is called a coordinate, pinpointing a specific location on Earth's surface. The coordinates are typically measured in degrees to indicate the exact position, with latitude lines running horizontally and longitude lines vertically. This system enables precise mapping and navigation.
What are sets of numbers that show where lines of longitude and latitude meet are called?
Sets of numbers that show where lines of latitude and longitude meet are called coordinates. Coordinates are used to specify exact locations on the Earth's surface.
What lines are parallel to the equator?
lines of latitude
Are the lines of Capricorn and cancer lines of longitude or latitude?
latitude?
What is the latitude and longitude lines of Massachusetts?
the latitude and longitude lines of longmeadow, ma are 42.05 North and 72.583 West. Hope that makes the range a little smaller. it's not exact but its the best I've got Peace Out ~anonomuys~
Are latitude lines called meridian?
Each 'meridian' is a line of constant longitude.
What are latitude and longitude for?
Latitude and longitude are coordinates used to determine a specific location on Earth's surface. Latitude lines run east-west and measure north-south position, while longitude lines run north-south and measure east-west position. Together, they form a grid system that helps pinpoint exact locations.
Lines of latitude and lines of longitude are perpendicular to?
Every meridian of longitude is perpendicular to every parallel of latitude, and every parallel of latitude is perpendicular to every meridian of longitude.
Are the parallel lines on a globe called longitude or latitude lines?
Latitude.
What lines are part of a grid system on the map?
Latitude and longitude
What are The lines that intercept latitude lines on a map Are lines of what?
The lines that intercept latitude lines are lines of longitude.
