Part III. Application of Latitude and Longitude
It’s a good idea to inform your friends and family back home of where you are going.
Identify the specific latitude and longitude coordinates of the city
where you will be spending your vacation.
Identify the coordinates of the city/state of your current residence
(where you live which is Houston, Texas).
Identify the coordinates of your lay over. Most long distance flights are
not direct flights. There is typically a place where you need to go in order to
transfer to another plane, which will take you to your destination. This will
require you to call or access a travel agent company’s Web site.
Slide #4: Identify the latitude and longitude coordinates of the area where you will be
specifically spending your vacation, the coordinates of the city of your current residence
(where you live), and the coordinates of your lay over flight.
