Poles:A pole is either of two points on the surface of a rotating planet where the axis of rotation meets the surface of the planet. The north pole of a body is 90 degrees north of the equator. The south pole lies 90 degrees south of the equator.

Greenwich: The prime meridian is a geographical reference line that passes through the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, in London, England.[1] It was first established by Sir George Airy in 1851, and by 1884, over two-thirds of all ships and tonnage used it as the reference meridian on their charts and maps.

Globe : A globe is a spherical model of Earth, of some other celestial body, or of the celestial sphere. Globes serve purposes similar to some maps, but unlike maps, do not distort the surface that they portray except to scale it down. A model globe of Earth is called a terrestrial globe.
