Geographic coordinate systems are methods used to define locations on the Earth's surface using a system of coordinates. This system typically employs latitude and longitude, where latitude measures how far north or south a location is from the equator, and longitude measures how far east or west a location is from the Prime Meridian. These coordinates are crucial for accurately representing and analyzing spatial data in various applications, including mapping and geospatial visualizations.
