where is the north and south pole on the world map?
It depends which Noth Pole you are referring to as they are at different locations. Do you mean North Magnetic Pole or the North Geomagnetic Pole?
The Geographic North Pole or Terrestrial North Pole is at 90 degress North latitude (not 0 degrees).
In 2001, the North Magnetic Pole was determined by the Geological Survey of Canada to lie near Ellesmere Island in northern Canada at 81.3° N 110.8° W.
As of 2005 the North Geomagnetic Pole was located at approximately 79.74° N 71.78° W, off the northwest coast of Greenland
The Geographic North Pole or Terrestrial North Pole is at 90 degress North latitude (not 0 degrees).
The North and South Poles are geographical points on Earth that represent its northernmost and southernmost locations. On a world map, the North Pole is typically located at the top, and the South Pole is located at the bottom. To find them on a standard map, you can follow these steps:
1. Look for the line of Latitude 90°N: The North Pole is located at latitude 90 degrees North. This line is called the "North Pole Parallel" or "90th Parallel North." It is the highest line of latitude on the map and represents the northernmost point on Earth.
2. Look for the line of Latitude 90°S: The South Pole is located at latitude 90 degrees South. This line is called the "South Pole Parallel" or "90th Parallel South." It is the lowest line of latitude on the map and represents the southernmost point on Earth.
Keep in mind that most world maps you encounter will be projected onto a two-dimensional surface, which can distort the true shape and distances of landmasses. For accurate representations of the polar regions, consult specialized maps or globes that preserve the true spherical shape of the Earth.
