Planning

• Extra explanation on coordinates
• Practice with coordinates
• Some time to hand in the Werkblad topografie

Everything north of the equator is

1. The northern hemisphere
2. The southern hemisphere
3. Northern latitude, N (NB)
4. Southern latitude, S (ZB)

Everything west of the prime meridian is:

1. The western hemisphere
2. The eastern hemisphere
3. Western longitude, W (WL)
4. Eastern longitude, E (OL)

Which line runs from pole to pole?

1. Every meridian
2. Every parallel
3. Only the prime meridian
4. only the equator

Meridians

• Run from pole to pole
• The prime meridian runs through London
• A meridian goes around half the earth

Meridians

• Help explain timezones
  

Which line is longest?

1. The tropic of the cancer
2. The equator
3. The prime meridian
4. They are all as long as each other

Parallels (Breedtecirkels)

• Go around the earth
• Are parallel to the equator

How many meridians are there?

1. 100
2. 180
3. 360
4. 1000

How many parallels are there?

1. 100
2. 180
3. 360
4. 1000

Waardoor komt dit verschil?

The real coordinates

• With N (NB) or S (ZB) you say whether something is north or south of the equator
  
• With degrees you say how far
  
• I will give an example

73,5 NB

The real coordinates

• With W (WL) and E (OL) you say whether the place is west or east of the prime meridian.
  
• With degrees you say how far
  

37 WL

So this place is at:

73,5 degrees northern latitude, 73,5 N (NB)

37 degrees western latitude, 37 W (WL)
