What city is located at 33s latitude and 18e longitude?
The city located at 33°S latitude and 18°E longitude is Cape Town, South Africa.
What city is located at 33s latitude and 70w longitude?
The location of 33 south and 70 west is in the Valle Nevado which is a ski resort with just under 2,000 acres of skiing area. This location is on the El Plomo foothills in the Andes Mountains, at 46 km to the east of Santiago (capital of Chile). This place is listed as the best ski & snowboard resort in Chile.
Where is 33S 70W?
33S 70W is located in the Southern Hemisphere, near the southern tip of South America. This coordinates point to an area in the Pacific Ocean west of the southern coast of Argentina.
How do you find the geographic opposite coordinate to a location on a globe?
Latitude is simple: replace N with S and vice versa: if something is at latitude 43 degrees north latitude, the antipode (which is the technical term for the "opposite coordinate") will be at latitude 43 degrees south. Longitude is more complicated. You need to replace E with W and subtract the numerical value (in degrees) from 180 to get the longitude of the antipode. So the antipode of San Diego (33N 117W or thereabouts) would be 33S 63E, which is in the Indian Ocean (the nearest dry land is probably Reunion Island, roughly 700 miles away to the northwest). The only locations in the US where the antipode is actually dry land (and you could "tunnel through the Earth" and come out somewhere that wasn't underwater) are most of Hawaii (antipodes in Zambia) and a few spots in the extreme north of Alaska (antipodes in Antarctica).
What country is at 33s and 22e?
That point is in South Africa.
