What else can I help you with?
What two set of lines do the geographic grid consists on?
latitude and longitude ramon C.
The geographic grid consists of two sets of lines?
latitude and longitude
What is the geographic grid consists of two sets of lines?
latitude and longitude
What is a set of crisscross lines on a map called?
There are really two answers to this: If you mean the vertical and horizontal lines, then yes, these are longitude and latitude. If however you mean the lines (particularly on older maps) that seem to run in diagonals almost like a compass...these are known as Rhumb lines and were used to help navigate between major cities or ports.
Is a grid formed by the intersection of two number lines?
Yes.
What are each of two lines that intersect to from a coordinate grid are?
The coordinate axes.
What is formed on a grid by the intersection of two number lines?
A coordinate plane.
What is a coordinated grid?
A coordinate grid is a grid that you plot points on. A coordinate grid is a 2-dimensional: system in which a location is described by its distance from two perpendicular lines called axes.
Geographic grids consist of what two lines?
Latitude and longitude
What does grid location?
A grid reference system, also known as grid reference or grid system, is a geographic coordinate system that defines locations in maps using Cartesian coordinates based on a particular map projection. Grid lines on maps illustrate the underlying coordinate system.
How do you use topographic map to find the location and elevation?
A typical topographical map is printed on a grid that enable a position to be found, or given, by using a grid reference. Elevation is shown by using contour lines. Contour lines show areas of the same height, and the lines may be set at 50 metres between them. Therefore, two contour lines have a height of 50 metres between them.
What are grid references?
Grid references are points defined by the coordinates of a grid or map system. The reference numbers can be used to denote a particular point or area on the grid. Most maps are labeled with numbers or letters on horizontal and vertical lines to allow you to find a given point (the intersection of those lines). Geographic maps may use latitude and longitude.
