The Greek invented latitude and longitude. Someone devised a concept of using a reference system based on the shape of the Earth, with the coordinates (latitude, longitude) expressed as degrees. In the 3rd century BC Erathosthenes proposed a system of latitude and longitude for a map. The following century (2nd century BC) Hipparchus was the first to use the above system to uniquely specify certain places on th Earth.

Hipparchus, a Greek astronomer who lived between 190 and 120 BC, was the first person to specify location by using latitude and longitude as coordinates.

Eratosthenes in the 3rd century BC first proposed a system of latitude and longitude for a map of the world. By the 2nd century BC Hipparchus was the first to use such a system to uniquely specify places on the earth. He also proposed a system of determining longitude by comparing the local time of a place with an absolute time. This is the first recognition that longitude can be determined by accurate knowledge of time.
North latitude is 49hr 36 min and 37 sec ,west longitude is 115 hr 46 min 57 sec.
Hipparchus is the man credited with developing the global grid system made up of imaginary lines of latitude and longitude. Though he was born in 190 BC and died in 120 BC, his grid system is still used today.
