Where is it located?
To locate them you can use geographical coordinates and maps.
Altitude
It is expressed in meters.
If the places to locate are found above the sea level, the altitude will be positive; whereas if they are found below the sea level, they will have negative altitudes
Latitude
It is expressed through the parallels, which are the horizontal lines you see drawn on a map.
It is the angular measure (from 0° to 90°) that locates an exact place from the Equator: the line that divides the Earth in Northern and Southern Hemispheres towards the South and North Pole.
Longitude
It is expressed through the meridians, which are the vertical lines you can see drawn on a map.
Parallels and meridians cross with each other to form a grid with identical vertical and horizontal spaces. Each intersection is the location's exact position. This is the theoretical basis of the Global Positioning Systems (GPS).
It is an angular measure (from 0° to 180°) that locates any point starting from the Greenwich meridian (prime meridian) towards the east or the west.
