The approximate location of the epicenter can typically be determined by analyzing seismic data from multiple monitoring stations. It is usually expressed in terms of geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) and is often reported in relation to nearby cities or landmarks. If you provide specific details about the earthquake in question, I can give a more precise answer.
To calculate absolute pressure when a barometer reading is given, simply add the barometer reading to the atmospheric pressure at sea level, which is approximately 101.3 kPa or 14.7 psi. This will give you the absolute pressure at the specific location where the barometer reading was taken.
Absolute location is typically defined by 3 (sometimes 4 variables): Latitude (distance from equator measured in degrees, minutes and seconds), longitude (distance from the prime meridian also given in degrees, minutes and seconds), elevation (distance above/below sea level) and sometimes time.
Three means of locating a place is: Longitude and latitude; Global Positioning System (GPS); Map Grid Reference.
Co-ordinates give a places location, with reference to an agreed absolute location.
Absolute location refers to the precise coordinates of a place on Earth, typically expressed using latitude and longitude. For example, the absolute location of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France is approximately 48.8584° N, 2.2945° E.
I don't know, and I don't care! Take that!
A single satellite can only give you relative location. 3 satellites can give a 2-D positioning/location that includes longitude and latitude. 4 satellites can give a 3-D positioning/location that includes longitude, latitude and altitude. Only 4 satellites can give you absolute location.
Absolute Location and Relative Location is important it is because it telling you EXACTLY the location it is at.
The starting line for measuring latitude is what
The coordinates of the Timor Sea provide its absolute location, indicating its specific position on the Earth's surface. Absolute location is defined by a set of numerical coordinates (latitude and longitude), which can pinpoint a location without ambiguity. In contrast, relative location describes a place in relation to other landmarks or areas. Thus, the coordinates give a precise understanding of where the Timor Sea is situated geographically.
The absolute location is 5 degrees north and 54 degrees west
An absolute location is one that is not dependent on other information. For example "the intersection of Main St. and Elm Drive" in a particular city is an absolute location, as is your home address. A relative location is one based on a distance and direction from some other location, which itself could be absolute or relative. For example, two houses north of the intersection of Elm Drive and Main street is a relative location based on an absolute location.
When a geographer explains that a river is 250 miles north of San Antonio, he is describing the river's relative location. To give the absolute location, he would give the latitude and longitude.
6 degrees North 5 Degrees West. (Give or take a bit...)
