South Latitude by F.D. Ommanney Publisher: Longmans, Green and Co, 1938Hardcover5.65 x 8.85 inches, 308 pagesIn geography, latitude is a coordinate that specifies the north–south position of a point on the surface of the Earth or another celestial body. Latitude is given as an angle that ranges from –90° at the south pole to 90° at the north pole, with 0° at the Equator. Lines of constant latitude, or parallels, run east–west as circles parallel to the equator. Latitude and longitude are used together as a coordinate pair to specify a location on the surface of the Earth.On its own, the term "latitude" normally refers to the geodetic latitude as defined below.
