What is the latitude and longitude of Spitsbergen?

Answer 1

Spitsbergen's most southerly tip 'Sorkapp' is 76.5 degrees N, its most northerly point is Vergelegenhuken at 80.1 degrees north. It stretches from Prins Karls Forland at 10 degrees east, to Kap Payer at 21.5 degrees east.

Spitsbergen is part of a larger archipelago which includes islands further north than Spitsbergen its self. Vesle Tavleoya is the most northerly of these, at 80.8 degrees north.

Answer 2

The latitude of Spitsbergen is 78°54′N, so if you subtract that from 90 degrees, you have just over 11 degrees, or just over 660 nautical miles from the true north pole.
