That place is a place's coordinates. Thanks for the answer. Although that is correct, there must be another answer. I'm looking for a word that is 8 letters long with the 5th letter being "L". This is for a geography crossword assignment. Anyone have an idea?
The absolute location. There was never much need to find a name for such a place, since every parallel of latitude crosses every meridian of longitude, and every meridian crosses every parallel.
The specific point on a map indicated by latitude and longitude is called a "geographic coordinate." These coordinates provide a precise location on the Earth's surface, where latitude specifies the north-south position and longitude specifies the east-west position. Together, they allow for accurate mapping and navigation.
An intersection of latitude and longitude lines is called a coordinate, pinpointing a specific location on Earth's surface. The coordinates are typically measured in degrees to indicate the exact position, with latitude lines running horizontally and longitude lines vertically. This system enables precise mapping and navigation.
The point where the equator crosses the prime meridian is known as the Null Island, with coordinates (0, 0). It is a fictional island and serves as a placeholder for data where coordinates are invalid or not available.
Each 'meridian' is a line of constant longitude.

The Tropic of Capricorn crosses every meridian of longitude on the face of the earth, but no latitudes.
There is no particular name for that event. It was decided long ago that since every parallel of latitude crosses each of the infinite number of meridians, and that every meridian of longitude crosses each of the infinite number of latitudes, it would be cruel to expect students, even gifted ones, to learn all of those names.

Latitude.
Latitude is often referred to as parallels, and longitude is often called meridians.
You mean latitude and longitude?
