Learn About Geographic Coordinate System

The geographical coordinates latitude and longitude are a spherical angular coordinate system whose center is the center of the Earth, they help us to accurately locate any point on planet earth since any horizontal point on the earth has two coordinates, a latitude coordinate and a longitude coordinate.

Definitions of latitude and longitude:

Latitude

All points on the earth that are north of the zero parallel or line of the equator have a north latitude coordinate and all points on the earth that are south of the equator have a south latitude coordinate. North and South latitude, both are made up of 90 degrees each.

Longitude

All points on the earth that are to the east of the zero meridian or greenwich meridian have an east longitude coordinate and all points on the earth that are west of the greenwich meridian have a west longitude coordinate. The east and west longitude are both made up of 180 degrees each.

Learn About UTM (Universal Transversal Mercator)

In the UTM (Universal Transverse Mercator) coordinate system, the earth has been divided into 60 zones from zone 1 to 60, these divisions have been made in the same direction as the meridians.

To represent a point on the earth in UTM coordinates, it is necessary to have the following information about that point:

Zone

Corresponds to the zone where the point is located.

Hemisphere

Indicates if the point is in the northern or southern hemisphere..

East

Corresponds to the number of meters from the starting line of the area to the east.

North

Corresponds to the number of meters to the north that is the point of the hemisphere.
