What else can I help you with?
From what point are all lines of latitude measured?
The equator is the origin (the zero) of latitude.Latitude is measured in angles, not lines.
What is the function of greenwich meridian?
Just as the equator is 0° latitude, the Greenwich Meridian, or Prime Meridian, is 0° longitude. It is the origin from which all longitudes are measured.
What type of front coincides with the origin of a mid-latitude cyclone?
Mid-latitude cyclones typically produce both a cold front and a warm front. These will usually merge to form an occluded front.
Were do you begin counting degrees of latitude?
Latitude is calculated from the equator, which is designated as 0 degrees latitude. Degrees of latitude increase as you move north or south from the equator, up to a maximum of 90 degrees at the poles.
What is another name for latitude lines that circle the earth from east to west but measure from north to south?
Parallels! As you look at a globe map the lines of latitude are paralell if the globe is oriented with north totally vertical and you are far enough away. (no 23.5 degree slant). Since the Earth is nearly spherical your paralell view of the lines of latitude would only appear so from above the equator. Lines of latitude are the origin of the term nautical mile and knot.

When using latitude and longitude coordinates where is the point of origin?
0,0 is the origin
Latitude is north and south of which imaginary lines?
The equator is the origin (the zero) of latitude.
Is the equator the origin of latitude?
Yes. The equator is the line formed by all points on earth with zero latitude.
Is the equator is a main line of longitude?
The equator is the origin for the lines of latitude
What is the origin name of doldrums horse latitude trade winds?
your mum on a stick
What is the starting point fro numbering parallels on a map?
The origin of latitude measurement is the equator.
what a global grid?
An x-y coordinate system, with the origin at 0° latitude and 0° longitude
What is a global grid?
The definition of global grid is a grid that covers the whole Earth.
Where do you begin counting degrees of latitude?
The equator is the origin of latitude.All latitudes are expressed in terms of an angle north or south of the equator.
From what point are all lines of latitude measured?
The equator is the origin (the zero) of latitude.Latitude is measured in angles, not lines.
What is the function of greenwich meridian?
Just as the equator is 0° latitude, the Greenwich Meridian, or Prime Meridian, is 0° longitude. It is the origin from which all longitudes are measured.
