1 Latitude and Longitude Begin
2 The Earth is divided in two halves, the top half is called the northern hemisphere, and the bottom half is called the southern hemisphere. The dividing line between the two hemispheres is called the equator, and is measured as 0 latitude.
3 equator (0 latitude)
4 Northern Hemisphere equator (0 latitude)
5 equator (0 latitude) Southern Hemisphere
6 Latitude is a measurement of how far north or south of the equator you are. Latitudes range from the equator (0 ) to 90 north and from the equator (0 ) to 90 south. Latitude lines are horizontal like the rungs of a ladder. Think of them as flat ( flat-itude ).
7 Notice how lines of latitude are parallel to one another. They are often called parallels for this reason.
8 Some important latitudes to know: Equator 0 Tropic of Cancer Tropic of Capricorn Arctic Circle Antarctic Circle North Pole South Pole Mamaroneck, NY 23.5 N 23.5 S 66.5 N 66.5 S 90 N 90 S 41 N

15 The Earth can also be divided into left and right, or east and west halves. These halves are separated by a line called the Prime Meridian, which is measured as 0 longitude. Everything to the west of this line is known as the western hemisphere while everything to the east is known as the eastern hemisphere.
16 Prime Meridian (0 longitude)
17 Prime Meridian (0 longitude) Western Hemisphere
18 Prime Meridian (0 longitude) Eastern Hemisphere
19 Longitude is a measurement of how far west or east of the Prime Meridian you are. Longitudes range from the Prime Meridian (0 ) to 180 and from the Prime Meridian (0 ) to º longitude does not have a direction. It is known as the International Dateline.
20 Notice how lines of longitude are not parallel to one another. They are often called meridians. Longitude lines are meet up at the north and south Poles.
