The equator and prime meridian are theoretical reference lines for the latitude/longitude coordinate system. The equator is the line of 0 degrees of latitude, while the prime meridian is the line of 0 degrees of longitude. Lines of latitude are parallel to the equator, and lines of longitude extend from pole to pole.
