Longitude and latitude coordinates are used for navigation purposes and in public transportation systems to determine specific locations on the Earth's surface. Longitude lines run north and south, measuring the distance east or west from the Prime Meridian (0 degrees). Latitude lines run east and west, measuring the distance north or south from the Equator (0 degrees). By using longitude and latitude coordinates, people can accurately pinpoint locations on a map, navigate using GPS systems, and access transportation services such as buses, trains, and subways.
