A specific spot on the earth can be specified with a street address or a latitude/longitude coordinate.

An address describes the location of a building, apartment, or other structure or a plot of land, which can be measured in square feet or in acres for larger areas. An address may include a country and/or postal code to aid in locating the address.

A coordinate can be for a pin-point location or refer to the general area. The size of the area depends on the precision (i.e., number of digits) of the coordinates. A whole degree north-south latitude difference is about 60 nautical miles, 111 kilometres or 69 statute miles. A precision of 8 decimal degrees get translated to roughly 1.11 millimeter for an exact location.
