When computer mapmakers digitize map data, they b. convert the data into computer language. This process involves translating geographic information into a format that can be used by computer software for analysis, storage, and display. The digitization allows for more efficient manipulation and visualization of map data.

What does a minus mean in latitude and longitude?

As you know, the latitude number must be further clarified as 'north' or 'south' latitude, and the longitude number must be further clarified as 'east' or 'west' longitude. But when you do that, it's hard for a computer to read the information ... which has become a pretty important consideration now. So nowadays, it's common to see latitude written as ' + ' for north and ' - ' for south, and longitude written as ' + ' for east and ' - ' for west. Computers understand the difference between positive and negative numbers very well, and this makes it easier all around.


Where can you find a map of Ontario that shows the latitude and longitude lines on it?

Most good road atlases and fold-up road maps show latitude and longitude marks along the borders of each map, although the lines aren't drawn across the map. Also, every package of road-atlas computer software has complete lat/long data, for every place it displays.


When given the location of a place on the globe which do you list first latitude or longeitude?

We typically list the latitude first, but some computer applications prompt you to enter the longitude first. In realty, it doesn't really make much difference.


How do you calculate area using longitude and latitude?

Go to itouchmap.com. Click on latitude & longitude. Feed the points. Next, click plat size. Mark the same points. Join all these points. You will find area & perimeter. (Be aware that you can get the answer that way, but you still don't know how to calculate it, and without a computer and an internet connection, you're still lost.)
