∙ 9y agoIf you give me accurate and precise numbers for the latitude and longitude of a point on the surface of the earth, I can use those numbers to go to the right place, and stick a pin in the ground within an inch of the exact spot.
The greatest possible number of degrees of latitude is 90. Latitude is measured from the equator toward the North Pole or toward the South Pole. The equator is zero degrees of latitude. The North Pole is 90 degrees N, and the South Pole is 90 degrees S.
The northernmost latitude on earth is 90 degreesnorth, at the north Pole.(The southernmost latitude on earth is 90 degreessouth, at the south Pole.)
The North Pole is located at approximately 90 degrees north latitude and 0 degrees longitude. The South Pole is located at approximately 90 degrees south latitude and 0 degrees longitude.
57 degrees latitude is a line on Earth that is located 57 degrees north or south of the equator. At 57 degrees north latitude, you would be in the northern hemisphere, while at 57 degrees south latitude, you would be in the southern hemisphere.
Zero degrees latitude is the Equator, which separates the Earth into north and south hemispheres.

No point on Earth could possible be situated at those coordinates, because the highest possible number for latitude is 90 degrees. 90° North latitude is the north pole, and 90° south latitude is the south pole.
The greatest possible number of degrees of latitude is 90. Latitude is measured from the equator toward the North Pole or toward the South Pole. The equator is zero degrees of latitude. The North Pole is 90 degrees N, and the South Pole is 90 degrees S.
Zero latitude is the definition of the earth's equator.
The northernmost latitude on earth is 90 degreesnorth, at the north Pole.(The southernmost latitude on earth is 90 degreessouth, at the south Pole.)
The earth's poles.
It is at 0 degrees latitude and degrees of latitude are measured from it. It also delineates the earth into the northern and southern hemispheres
The North Pole is located at approximately 90 degrees north latitude and 0 degrees longitude. The South Pole is located at approximately 90 degrees south latitude and 0 degrees longitude.

Earth's Circumference at the Equator: 24,901.55 miles (40,075.16 km) (from about.com); 0 degrees latitude is the equator.
The smallest line of latitude is the Equator, which is at 0 degrees latitude. It divides the Earth into the Northern and Southern Hemispheres.
