More model informationThis model demonstrates the angular measurement of latitude (and longitude) with the centre of the Earth as an origin.
Latitudes measure an angle north and south from the equator, while longitudes are an angle from the prime meridian, measured east and west.
More information about the equator and the prime meridian can be found in this model, or discover more about latitude and longitude.
