One degree of latitude is equivalent to approximately 111 kilometers or 111,000 meters.
At 46.5° latitude, one degree of latitude is approximately 68.71 miles. The distance in miles covered by one degree of longitude varies based on the latitude, and 80.9° longitude does not affect this latitude calculation.
One degree of latitude on Earth is equal to approximately 69 miles (111 kilometers).
One nautical mile is equivalent to one minute of latitude. In terms of degrees, one nautical mile is approximately 1/60th of a degree of latitude.

The number of miles in one degree of latitude depends on how far you are from the equator.
One degree of latitude, and one degree of longitude along the equator only, is equivalent to roughly 69.1 miles (111 km). One degree of latitude, and of longitude on the equator only, is also equal to about 60 nautical miles.
There are 90 degrees of latitude in each half of the globe.
One degree of latitude, and one degree of longitude along the equator only, is equivalent to roughly 69.1 miles (111 km). One degree of latitude, and of longitude on the equator only, is also equal to about 60 nautical miles.
About 69 miles
One degree of latitude is 69.06 miles. With this information, and knowing that there are 5,280 feet in a mile, this becomes a simple arithmetic problem.
The width of one degree of latitude depends on the location. At the equator on degree is 68.71 miles. At latitude 40 degrees, one degree is 68.99 miles. At latitude 80 degrees, one degree is 69.38 miles.
