Attribute_Definition:

Latitude is a north-south measurement of position on the Earth. It is defined by the angle measured from a horizontal plane located at the Earth's center that is perpendicular to the polar axis. A line connecting all places of the same latitude is termed a parallel. Latitude is commonly, but not exclusively, measured in degrees, minutes, and seconds. Measurements of latitude range from 0° (at the Equator) to 90° North (90.0) or South (-90.0).

A line connecting all places of the same longitude is termed a meridian. Longitude is commonly, but not exclusively, measured in degrees, minutes, and seconds. Measurements of longitude range from 0° (Prime Meridian) to 180° West (-180.0) or 180° East (180.0) from this point.
