Guide for Use

Positions of geographic features can be defined in space by a set of coordinates. In order for coordinates to be unique, the coordinate reference system needs to be fully defined. A coordinate reference system is realized by a reference frame, which comprises a datum and a coordinate system. Geographical coordinates (latitudes and longitudes) are the universal system for defining spatial position. A set of geographic coordinates on a datum is complete and unique, worldwide. The geographic latitude of a point on the earth is a measurement in degrees north or south of the equator reference to a prescribed datum. Latitudes south of the equator are expressed as a negative number, north of the equator as positive.
