Introduction
GPScape System
Any location on Earth may be described by two positioning coordinates.
These two coordinates, measured by degrees, minutes, and seconds, are:
latitude
longitude
Latitudes are horizontal circles drawn around the Earth. The zero degree
latitude (the equator) divides the globe into the Northern and Southern
hemispheres.
