Some GPS devices allow you to enter the lat/lon coordinates of the place you want to

go to, and some don't. Different GPS devices have different procedures for entering

those numbers. If your device is able to take coordinates as input, the procedure is

clearly described in the operation manual that came with it when you bought it.

Can gps receivers calculate altitude?

Depends on the GPS device. Although ALL of them do have the raw data received from the satellites in order to calculate it, you would have to to consult your specific device to know if it will to provide the user with that information. Simply put, a GPS is time data receiver. It receives time data from many satellites and according to the time it took from the data to get to the device ( always some milliseconds), it calculates the distance from each one of them. Once it has determined the distance from at least a number of satellites (usually at least 4), a mathematical function will determine the exact 3-dimensional position of the GPS itself; that is Latitude, longitude and altitude. All you will have to do is determine whether a specific GPS brand and model will display the altitude numbers also or only latitude and longitude.


How can we locate the places on the map with the help of latitudes and longitudes?

Any geographic point on the Earth can be identified by its latitude and longitude. However, locations underground may not be accessible at the same point above them on the surface. Any online map site should let you enter the latitude and longitude to see what is located there.Latitude is always first and on the side so you would find latitude then longitude is up and down then u would put your finger on the point then follow the line until your fingers meet.Take two fingers, place one on the latitude you want and the other on the longitude you want. Then move your fingers along the lines until they connect. Make sense?

How is coordinate geometry used in real life?

There are many things which are depend on coordinate geometry, for example when a person or government wants to find where a place is situated, or the location of a person, longitude and latitude coordinates can be used to find them. The whole globe is based on longitude and latitude - where the lines of longitude and latitude meet is a coordinate.For example, it is possible to find the longitude and latitude of a place and then use those coordinates to find the place on a map. The location could also be put into a sat-nav device which uses its current longitude and latitude coordinates to work out a route to the destination - all in little steps between different coordinates.
