The Degree Confluence Project is a World Wide Web-based all-volunteer project that aims to have people visit each of the integer degree intersections of latitude and longitude on Earth, posting photographs and a narrative of each visit online. The project describes itself as "an organized sampling of the world".
Longitude: from West to East this map definition covers 4.7 degrees. At an image width of 200 pixels, that is 0.0235 degrees per pixel. At an image width of 1000 pixels, that is 0.0047 degrees per pixel. Latitude: from North to South this map definition covers 2.6 degrees. At an image height of 200 pixels, that is 0.013 degrees per pixel.
Map of France. Module:Location map/data/France is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of France. The markers are placed by latitude and longitude coordinates on the default map or a similar map image.
Belgium covers an area of 30,689 km 2 (11,849 sq mi) [4] and has a population of more than 11.7 million; [7] its population density of 383/km 2 (990/sq mi) ranks 22nd in the world and sixth in Europe. The capital and largest metropolitan region is Brussels; [d] other major cities are Antwerp, Ghent, Charleroi, Liège, Bruges, Namur, and Leuven.
Geodetic latitude and geocentric latitude have different definitions. Geodetic latitude is defined as the angle between the equatorial plane and the surface normal at a point on the ellipsoid, whereas geocentric latitude is defined as the angle between the equatorial plane and a radial line connecting the centre of the ellipsoid to a point on the surface (see figure).
The 44th parallel north is a circle of latitude that is 44 degrees north of the Earth's equatorial plane.It crosses Europe, the Mediterranean Sea, Asia, the Pacific Ocean, North America, and the Atlantic Ocean.

A topographic map of the Republic, excluding all the overseas departments and territories Simplified physical map. The geography of France consists of a terrain that is mostly flat plains or gently rolling hills in the north and the west and mountainous in the south (including the Massif Central and the Pyrenees) and the east (the country's highest points being in the Alps).
