Determining latitude and longitude on a map?
On the page quick identification coordinates on the map - we find out the latitude and longitude of the city. Online search for streets and houses by address, using GPS, to determine coordinates on a Yandex map, how to find a location - described in more detail below.
Determining the geographic coordinates of any city in the world (find out latitude and longitude) by online map from the Yandex service is actually a very simple process. You have two convenient options, let’s take a closer look at each of them.
Fill out the form: Rostov-on-Don Pushkinskaya 10 (with the help and if you have the house number, the search will be more accurate). In the upper right corner there is a form for determining coordinates, which contains 3 precise parameters - the coordinates of the mark, the center of the map and the zoom scale.
After activating the “Find” search, each field will contain the necessary data - longitude and latitude. Look at the “Center of the map” field.
Second option: In this case it’s even simpler. Interactive world map with coordinates contains a marker. By default, it is located in the center of Moscow. You need to drag the label and place it on the desired city, for example, determine the coordinates on. The latitude and longitude will automatically match the search object. Look at the “Mark Coordinates” field.
When searching the desired city or countries, use the navigation and zoom tools. By zooming in and out +/-, also moving the interactive map, easy to find any country, search for a region on the world map. So you can find geographical center Ukraine or Russia. In the country of Ukraine, this is the village of Dobrovelichkovka, which is located on the Dobraya River, Kirovograd region.

48.3848,31.1769 48.3848 northern latitude and 31.1769 east longitude
Longitude +37° 17′ 6.97″ E (37.1769)
Latitude +48° 38′ 4.89″ N (48.3848)
At the entrance to the urban settlement there is a sign notifying about this interesting fact. It will most likely be uninteresting to examine its territory. There are much more interesting places in the world.
How to find a place on the map using coordinates?
Let's consider reverse process, for example . Why do you need to determine latitude and longitude on a map? Let's say you need to determine by GPS coordinates navigator shows the exact location of the car on the diagram. Or close friend will call on a day off and tell you the coordinates of his location, inviting you to join a hunt or fishing.
Knowing the exact geographic coordinates, you will need a map with latitude and longitude. It is enough to enter your data into the search form from the Yandex service to determine the location by coordinates successfully. Example, enter the latitude and longitude of Moskovskaya street 66 in the city of Saratov - 51.5339,46.0368. The service will quickly determine and display the location of a given house in the city as a mark.
In addition to the above, you can easily determine the coordinates on the map of any metro station in the city. After the name of the city we write the name of the station. And we observe where the mark is located and its coordinates with latitude and longitude. To determine the length of the route, you need to use the “Ruler” tool (measuring distances on the map). We put a mark at the beginning of the route and then at end point. The service will automatically determine the distance in meters and show the track itself on the map.
It is possible to more accurately examine a place on the map thanks to the “Satellite” scheme ( top corner on right). Look what it looks like. You can do all of the above operations with it.
World map with longitude and latitude
Imagine you are in an unfamiliar area, and there are no objects or landmarks nearby. And there is no one to ask! How could you explain your exact location so that you can be found quickly?
Thanks to concepts such as latitude and longitude, you can be detected and found. Latitude shows the location of the object in relation to the South and North Poles. The equator is considered to be zero latitude. South Pole located at 90 degrees. south latitude, and North at 90 degrees north latitude.
This data turns out to be insufficient. It is also necessary to know the situation in relation to the East and West. This is where the longitude coordinate comes in handy.

Cartographic data of cities in Russia, Ukraine and the world
Latitude (shown as horizontal line) is angular distance, in degrees, minutes and seconds of a point north or south of the Equator. Lines of latitude are often referred to as parallels.
Longitude (shown as vertical line) is the angular distance, in degrees, minutes and seconds, of a point east or west of the Origin (Greenwich) Meridian. Lines of longitude are often referred to as meridians.
Line spacing
If you divide the circumference of the earth (approximately 25,000 miles) by 360 degrees, the distance on the surface of the earth for each degree of latitude or longitude is just over 69 miles or 111 km. Note: As you move north or south of the equator, the distance between lines of longitude becomes shorter until they actually meet at the poles. At 45 degrees N or S of the equator, one degree of longitude is approximately 49 miles.
Minutes and seconds
For the sake of accuracy, the degrees of longitude and latitude have been divided into minutes (") and seconds ("). Each degree has 60 minutes. Each minute is divided into 60 seconds. Seconds can be further divided into tenths, hundredths, or even thousandths. For example, our office on Galveston Island, Texas, USA, is located 29 degrees, 16 minutes, and 22 seconds north of the equator and 94 degrees, 49 minutes and 46 seconds west of the Prime Meridian.
For example, our office on Galveston Island, Texas, USA, is located 29 degrees, 16 minutes, and 22 seconds north of the equator and 94 degrees, 49 minutes and 46 seconds west of the Prime Meridian.
Relative Locations
Relative Location of a city or destination on a planet - its relationship to another place or nearby landmarks.
As an example, our US office is located on Galveston Island, located in southeast Texas on the Gulf of Mexico, approximately 48 miles southeast of Houston. This is our relative location.
Absolute Locations
Absolute Location is the categorical location of a place, using a recognized coordinate system. In terms of latitude and longitude, our office in Galveston, Texas is 29°16" North, 94°49" West, marked with a red dot on the map above. To find the absolute location of any destination use the resources shown above for relative location of any country, go
A geographic map of the world is an overview map of the relief of the earth's surface. On geographical map the world is marked with a coordinate grid. The geographic map of the world does not display individual states and countries to generalize and simplify the display of surface relief above sea level (the darker the color, the higher the surface). A geographic map of the world clearly and concisely shows information about the main continents, seas and oceans and allows you to quickly create an image of the relief of the whole world.
