Geographical Frame of Reference

A geographical frame of reference is a way to locate and describe positions on Earth's surface using fixed points or directions. It provides context by using features like the Equator, Prime Meridian, or known landmarks to help identify where something is, whether on a map or in real life. Think of it as a coordinate system that helps us understand spatial relationships, ensuring everyone can find or describe locations consistently and accurately. This system is fundamental for navigation, mapping, and geographic analysis.
