A set of latitude/longitude numbers nails down a single point on the Earth.
The point can be located on a continent, but a whole continent can't be located
at a point.
The point 20° N / 0° is in the Sahara desert in northeast Mali, about 990 miles
north of Accra, Ghana, and 1,050 miles east of Africa's Atlantic coast.
The continent at 0 degrees latitude and 0 degrees longitude (the intersection of the equator and prime meridian) is Africa. The point is located in the Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of Ghana and Liberia.
The intersection of 0 degrees latitude and 0 degrees longitude is known as the Prime Meridian and the Equator.
equator
It's called the intersection of the Equator and the Prime Meridian, at a point in theGulf of Guinea, south of Accra, Ghana, and west of Libreville, Gabon. If it has anyspecial name, we're not aware of it.
The intersection of latitude 00 and longitude 00 is located off the coast of Africa in the Atlantic Ocean, near the Gulf of Guinea. This point is known as the Prime Meridian (0 degrees longitude) and the equator (0 degrees latitude).
The continent at 0 degrees latitude and 0 degrees longitude (the intersection of the equator and prime meridian) is Africa. The point is located in the Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of Ghana and Liberia.
The intersection of 0 degrees latitude and 0 degrees longitude is known as the Prime Meridian and the Equator.
The Asian continent is located at this intersection of longitude and latitude.
The prime meridian is a line at 0 degrees longitude.
The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees N latitude. All lines of longitude converge at both poles including the Prime Meridian and the International Date Line.
longitude
That would be the Prime Meridian.
equator
It's called the intersection of the Equator and the Prime Meridian, at a point in theGulf of Guinea, south of Accra, Ghana, and west of Libreville, Gabon. If it has anyspecial name, we're not aware of it.
The intersection of latitude 00 and longitude 00 is located off the coast of Africa in the Atlantic Ocean, near the Gulf of Guinea. This point is known as the Prime Meridian (0 degrees longitude) and the equator (0 degrees latitude).
The prime meridian is a line at 0 degrees longitude.
The equator and the Prime meridian meet at zero degrees latitude and longitude.
