Define latitude e longitude e mostra que este é um sistema de coordenadas utilizado para localizar pontos sobre a superfície da Terra. Define aspectos importantes do sistema latitude-longitude, como a linha do equador, o meridiano de Greenwich, os pólos norte e sol, os paralelos e os meridianos. Mostra que a latitude varia de zero a noventa graus para o norte e para o sul a partir da linha do equador, enquanto que a longitude varia de zero a cento e oitenta graus para leste e para oeste a partir do meridiano de Greenwich. Mostra a latitude ea longitude de pontos turísticos como a Torre Eiffel, em Paris, ea estátua do Cristo Redentor, no Rio de Janeiro. Mostra também as coordenadas da posição do naufrágio do transatlântico Titanic.. + Informações

www.eutoxita.com This is my follow-up to "5 Themes of Geography". I'm teaching science now but my friend & colleague requested something to help students remember and understand how latitude and longitude work. There are references to Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, and Bob Dylan. Special thanks to my daughter for making the Dylanesque cards and to my son for loaning me his football jersey. Go Rams! Enjoy!

From the musical, "Explorer Idol" - www.canadianamusical.com. In 1778, Captain Cook, William Bligh, and George Vancouver were the first British sailors to arrive at Vancouver Island. These reknowned navigators and chartmakers greatly benefitted from John Harrison's new invention, the Chronometer (Sea Clock) . The first clock to keep accurate time at sea, it gave sailors the means to measure distance East or West from their starting point; their longitude. In 1964, the Beatles arrived in North America.. + Informações

To describe the location of any place on Earth, we need to know not only latitude, but longitude as well. Wildlife photographer Natalie Haymaker demonstrates the location and role of the prime meridian, the measurement of longitude, and the time zones, as well as how the distance between longitude lines gets shorter away from the equator. Part of "Map Skills," which is a five-part series that provides a world of information through delightfully animated programs featuring the exploits of a wildlife photographer and an outdoorsman. Difficult concepts are described clearly and completely. Produced by Christianson Productions, Inc.
