The US Geological Survey defines the geographic center of California about 7.1 miles (11.4 km) driving distance from the United States Forest Service office in the Northern Californian city of North Fork, California. Earth scientists typically divide the state into eleven geomorphic provinces with clearly defined boundaries.
Google Earth is a web and computer program that renders a 3D representation of Earth based primarily on satellite imagery.The program maps the Earth by superimposing satellite images, aerial photography, and GIS data onto a 3D globe, allowing users to see cities and landscapes from various angles.
Since August 2015, Google Maps has supported plus codes in its search engine. [7] The shortened plus code is displayed for a location, may be copied , clicked, or transcribed, and can be entered into the address box (followed by the town or city name if not local and using shortened code) to display the location on the map.
Keyhole Markup Language (KML) is an XML notation for expressing geographic annotation and visualization within two-dimensional maps and three-dimensional Earth browsers.

GeoJSON [1] is an open standard format designed for representing simple geographical features, along with their non-spatial attributes.It is based on the JSON format.. The features include points (therefore addresses and locations), line strings (therefore streets, highways and boundaries), polygons (countries, provinces, tracts of land), and multi-part collections of these types.
One new feature will be a state-wide zone for projects that extend over more than one zone. [2] The NGS expects to release the new spatial reference system and new zones in 2025. [ 3 ] As with earlier systems, the name of the new system, State Plane Coordinate System of 2022, indicates a year earlier than the actual year of release.
This region thought uninhabitable, was called the "Frigid Zone." The only area believed to be habitable was the northern "Temperate Zone" (the southern one not having been discovered), lying between the "Frigid Zones" and the "Torrid Zone". However, humans have inhabited almost all climates on Earth, including inside the Arctic Circle.
