Relating a place of a point or space on the Earth's surface to its height above or
below a fixed reference point, most commonly a reference geoid, a mathematical model
of the Earth's sea level as an equipotential gravitational surface.

Relating a place of a point or space on the Earth's surface to its geographic coordinate
specifying the north–south position of that point, based on the World Geodetic System
(WGS) standard. The coordinate is expressed as the angle between the equatorial plane
and the normal, for a sphere from the center, to the surface at that point.

skos:note |
Points with the same latitude lie on a circle around the Earth parallel to its equator.
There are different latitudes, depending on the abstracted shape of the earth as spherical
or ellipsoid, and other aspects. The decimal value can be converted to a sexagesimal
using an N3 rule stating: [decimal degrees - (decimal degrees modulus (%) 1)]° [decimal
degrees % 1 x 60 - decimal degrees % 1 x 60 % 1]' + [decimal degrees % 1 * 60 % 1
* 60]''

Relating a place of a point or space on the Earth's surface to its geographic coordinate
specifying the east-west position of that point, based on the World Geodetic System
(WGS) standard. The coordinate is expressed as the angle in the equatorial plane between
a meridian plane containing the surface point and a by convention allocated prime
meridian plane at 0 degrees longitude. The IERS Reference Meridian is used here as
prime meridian.

Points with the same longitude lie on a meridian or semi-circle between the poles.
There are different longitudes, depending on the abstracted shape of the earth as
spherical or ellipsoid, and other aspects. The decimal value can be converted to a
sexagesimal using an N3 rule stating: [decimal degrees - (decimal degrees modulus
