What pole is at the top of the planet Earth?
The north pole is usually shown at the top of a map of Earth.
What is often the center of the map of either the North or the South Pole?
Polar maps usually put the named pole at the center of the map.
How is latitude shown on the map?
The lines going up and down (vertical) from the south pole and north pole
What is the polar projection map?
Polar projections are often made in what is called the Azimuthal Equidistant Projection. The projection would be made tangent at the north pole, or at the south pole. These projections allow you to make linear measurements from the pole to any point on earth. These measurements are the shortest distances from the pole to the points and can be directly compared to one another. A polar projection shows the poles; I learned it in my science class.
Where are the north and south poles located?
The location of the North and South Poles are the North and South Poles. The coordinates are North Pole 90N only , South Pole 90 S only. All the longitudes /meridians meet at these two points. Casually, but incorrectly, they are thought of as the top and bottom of the Earth.
What two directions are next to west?
Left if your map is the North pole at the top, or right if your map has the South pole on the top most maps have a compass sort of icon that shows the North South East West icons on it
If the direction from any point on the map toward the south pole is?
from anywhere on a map south is the direction towards the south pole.
What pole is at the top of the planet Earth?
The north pole is usually shown at the top of a map of Earth.
What is the meaning of the south pole and north pole in the equator?
The Equator is exactly between the North Pole and the South Pole. Look on a map of the world or on a globe.
Where is the North and South Pole on a map for kids?
It is truly unfortunate that most maps -- even those for children -- do not list latitudes where there is no population. This means that most maps do not include either polar areas. Polar areas are best viewed in the context of a world globe.
What is often the center of the map of either the North or the South Pole?
Polar maps usually put the named pole at the center of the map.
What do you call the top of the earth?
The map Earth is customarily drawn with the North Geographic Pole at the top.
On a map what continent is farthest south?
Antarctica is the continent farthest south on a map. It is located at the South Pole and is mostly covered in ice.
Is the North Pole actually the South Pole?
No, the North Pole and South Pole are not the same. The North Pole is located at the top of the Earth, while the South Pole is at the bottom. They are opposite ends of the Earth's axis.
On a standard world map where is the North Pole usually found?
The North Pole is usually located at the top of a standard world map. It is the point where the Earth's axis of rotation meets its surface in the Northern Hemisphere.
How is latitude shown on the map?
The lines going up and down (vertical) from the south pole and north pole
What lines of a map run from north pole to the south pole?
lines of equal longitude, a.k.a. meridians
