This is slide show created based on a tutorial hosted by Geography World and created by Mr. Bowerman. All credit for images and information go to them. I created this for use in a 4/5 grade gifted social studies and math lesson.
A coordinate system is a reference system used to represent the locations of geographic features, imagery, and observations, within a common geographic framework.
Coordinate systems enable geographic datasets to use common locations for integration.
This Presentation is to made concepts about measuring the earth (to locate position of any person on the whole earth). For this purpose we re going step by step basis in this presentation.These steps are mentioned as contents. After that you may able to learn about measuring a person's position of earth. Thank you!

Latitudes and longitudes and india size and locationRajesh Kumar
This presentation covers the following topics:
1. Geographic coordinate system, i.e, latitude and longitudes
2. Size and location of India
(because before understanding the size and location our country, Geographic coordinate system, i.e, latitude and longitudes are important)
which enables the students to locate all four hemispheres including
Northern Hemisphere
Southern Hemisphere
Eastern Hemisphere
Western Hemisphere
Students will be able to identify which line divides the earth into the correct hemispheres.
Students will be able to find locations on map using longitude and latitude.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

For example, If some friends come together for dinner and if they want to divide the bill then it is possible by POS bill splitting. This slide will show how to split bills in odoo 17 POS.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2. Latitude
What is Latitude?
• Lines of Latitude run horizontally
• Latitude is measured in degrees.
• The Equator is 0 degrees Latitude.
• Lines of Latitude locate places North or
South of the Equator.
• The North Pole is 90 degrees N Latitude, and
the South Pole is 90 degrees S Latitude.
3. Longitude
• Lines of Longitude run vertically.
• They are also called Meridians.
• The Prime Meridian is found in Greenwich,
England.
• The Prime Meridian is 0 degrees Longitude.
• Lines of Longitude locate places East or
West of the Prime Meridian.
• There are 180 degrees of east Longitude,
and 180 degrees of west Longitude.
4. Time Zones
• Time zones are broad strips that measure
15 degrees wide.
• Time zones differ from their neighboring
time zones by 1 hour.
• The continental U.S. has 4 time zones,
Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific.
• In the Spring we shift the clocks 1 hour
ahead. This is called Daylight Saving Time.
• In the Fall we shift the clocks 1 hour back.
5. Time Zones (cont…)
Local Time and Universal Time
Local Time- is what we use everyday, and
regulates our lives.
Examples of Local Time are: meal time, sleep
time, work time, and school time
Universal Time- is what we use when we
need a time that is agreed upon marking
time world-wide.
An example when Universal Time was used
was when a supernova in 1987 was first
seen. Astronomers, and Astronauts use
Universal Time..
6. Time Zones (cont….)
• Greenwich Mean Time- is the time
that is registered at Greenwich,
England.
**Greenwich Mean Time is another
name for Universal Time.
The International Dateline was
established following the 180th
meridian, where ever we cross it
the date advances 1 day ( if you
are going west), or goes back 1 day
(if you are going east).
7. Summary
1.What do lines of Latitude and Longitude combine to
make?
A grid.
2.Compare and Contrast Latitude and Longitude.
Latitude- horizontal, north- south, parallels
Longitude- vertical, east-west, meridians

Equator
4.What is 0 degrees Longitude?
Prime Meridian
5.How many time zones do we have in the U.S.A.?
4- Eastern, Central, Mountain, Pacific
6. Explain the difference between Local Time, and Universal
Time.
Local time- used everyday
Universal Time- is used for a planetary event, or for

technologies to acquire, process and
report information from a spatial
perspective.

latitude, longitude, the hemispheres,
directions, time zone, scale, and map
legends.

meridian, we can divide the
world into four hemispheres,
north, south, east, and west.

20. Compass
• A compass is a tool that helps the
user know what direction one is
headed.
• On a map, a compass or a compass
rose helps the user locate these
directions.
21. Compass Rose
• The needle on a compass is magnetized to
point to the earth's north magnetic pole.
Thus with a compass, a person can roughly
tell which direction they are headed.
• There are four major or cardinal directions
on a compass- north, south, east & west. In
between are the directions northeast,
northwest, southeast, southwest.
• Direction Quiz
Source: http://aerocompass.larc.nasa
22. Directions
• The cardinal directions are north, south,
east, and west.
• The intermediate directions are northeast,
southeast, southwest and northwest.
• They help describe the location of places in
relation to other places.
23. Scale
• Maps are made to scale; that is, there is a
direct connection between a unit of
measurement on the map and the actual
distance.
• For example, each inch on the map
represents one mile on Earth. So, a map of
a town would show a mile-long strip of fast
food joints and auto dealers in one inch.
25. Time Zones
• The Earth is divided into 24 time
zones, corresponding to 24 hours in a
day.
• As the earth rotates, the sun shines in
different areas, moving from east to
west during the course of a day.
• Places that have the same longitude
will be in the same time zone.
26.
27. Map Legends
• The legend is the key to unlocking the secrets of
a map. Objects or colors in the legend represent
something on the map.
Religions Legend

42. East West, North South on the
Earth
• The N tells us we’re
(N, W) (N, E) north of the Equator.
The S tells us we’re
south of the Equator.
• The E tells us that
we’re east of the
Prime Meridian. The
(S, W) (S, E) W tells us that we’re
west of the Prime
Meridian.
43. East West, North South on the
Earth
(N, W) • That means all points
in North
America will have a
North latitude and a
West longitude
because it is North of
the Equator and West
Prime Meridian
of the Prime Meridian.

Y latitude is
divided into
