Merging Latitude and Longitude columns
Hiking & ActivitiesHow do you combine latitude and longitude?
Quote from video: Put an ampersand that is unsigned open quotes comma close quotes. And then click on the longitude. Enter so the moment you enter this is joined then auto fuel downwards.
What is the combined linear latitude and longitude?
The combination of these two components specifies the position of any location on the surface of Earth, without consideration of altitude or depth. The visual grid on a map formed by lines of latitude and longitude is known as a graticule.
Why do latitude and longitude intersect each other?
why? The latitudes are the parallel lines that are drawn from east to west direction and the longitudes are the lines that run from north to south direction. They cut each other at 90 degrees because they are drawn at equidistant places.
Do lines of longitude ever meet?
Lines of Longitude are referred to as Meridians of Longitude. These lines are not parallel to each other. They come closer and closer to each other as they approach the north and south poles, where they all meet.
What is WGS84 coordinates?
The World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS84) is a datum featuring coordinates that change with time. WGS84 is defined and maintained by the United States National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA). It is consistent, to about 1cm, with the International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF).
What are the 7 parallels of latitude?
The seven important lines of latitude are the equator at 0 degrees, Tropic of Capricorn at 23.5 degrees south, Tropic of Cancer at 23.5 degrees north, Antarctic Circle at 66.5 degrees south, Arctic Circle at 66.5 degrees north, the South Pole at 90 degrees south and the North Pole at 90 degrees north.
Does longitude converge at the poles?

What are UTM coordinates measured in?
meters
Within each zone, coordinates are measured as northings and eastings in meters. The northing values are measured from zero at the equator in a northerly direction. Each zone has a central meridian that is assigned an easting value of 500,000 meters.
What is longitude and latitude XY?
Latitude is the Y axis, longitude is the X axis. Since latitude can be positive and negative (north and south of the Equator), and longitude can be as well (negative west of Greenwich and positive eastward) when the -180 to +180 longitude system is use.
What is linear latitude?
The linear distance between lines of longitude vary and is a function of latitude. The linear distance between lines of longitude is greatest at the equator, decreasing to zero at the poles. There are 360° of longitude, divided into 180° east and 180° west of the prime meridian.
