ground elevation
The State of Colorado ranges in latitude from about 37° to 41° North, and in longitude from about 102.05° to 109.05°. ANY latitude or longitude within either of those ranges crosses some part of Colorado.
Every point on the surface of the earth has latitude and longitude. If the latitude and longitude of a point are given and they're sufficiently accurate, the point can be found within less than an inch, anywhere on earth.
Bucharest, Romania, Latitude = 44.43º N (44º25'48" N) Longitude = 26.1º E (26º6'0" E).
Longitude and latitude correspond to locations on the surface of the earth. The little dipper is in the sky. The world, itself, spins on an axis and rotates around the sun, there is no stationary latitude or longitude which corresponds to the little dipper.
The coordinates 20N latitude, 105W longitude are located in Mexico. Specifically, they are within the country's territory in the Pacific Ocean.
Coordinates are numeral values within a plane or three-dimensional space that identify a point within that system. In geometry, Cartesian coordinates indicate values within a grid system of perpendicular axes. In geography, coordinates give latitude (North and South) and longitude (East and West). They show an exact place on the map and are traditionally expressed in degrees, minutes, and seconds (the angle from an arbitrary reference plane).
The center of City Hill in Canberra, Australia is located at 35.28201° south latitude 149.12868° east longitude. Other spots around the town, or even within the same park, have different coordinates.
Morocco is 32 degrees North and 6 degrees West.
Forget about "lines". Every point on earth has a different set of geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude). Paris is a big place, with many points within its city limits. The Arc de Triomphe is centered at 48.87382° north latitude 02.29500° east longitude. The Eiffel Tower is centered on 48.85852° north latitude 02.29474° east longitude. The north end of the Carrousel Bridge, where it crosses the Quai François Mitterand at the southwest entrance to the Louvre, is located at 48.86008° north latitude 02.33337° east longitude.
If you give me accurate and precise numbers for the latitude and longitude of a point on the surface of the earth, I can use those numbers to go to the right place, and stick a pin in the ground within an inch of the exact spot.
The peak of the spire on the dome of St. Peter's Basilica is located at 41.9022° north latitude 12.4534° east longitude. Other locations within the Holy See have somewhat different coordinates.
Minnesota occupies all latitudes in the range from 43.5° to 49.38° north, and all longitudes in the range from 89.49° to 97.24° west. Any latitude or longitude you choose within these ranges crosses some part of Minnesota.
