Latitude
Line of Latitude measure the distance (in degrees) north and south of the equator
The equator is 0 degrees They run east and west Think “ladder” for latitude

Longitude
Lines of longitude measure the distance (in degrees) east and west of the prime meridian
Prime meridian is 0 degrees International dateline is 180 degrees
What is the international dateline? They run north and south

Latitude and Longitude
What does the combination of both coordinates give you? Answer: Absolute location Example: Kansas City is 39 degrees N,
98 degrees W Practice: Approximate the
coordinates of Denver, CO using the map on the screen Do the same with Springfield, IL

Maps and Globes
Globe: 3D representation of the earth Pros: see the earth as it really is Cons: only see half at a time
Map: 2D representation of the earth Pros: See the whole world Cons: Can be distorted depending on
type of map A cartographer is someone who
makes maps

Thematic
Focuses on one type of information
Can go beyond physical geography
Uses: Show a very
specific type of information

Map Components
There are some components most maps will share
They are: Title Compass rose Legend/key Scale Latitude/Longitude
