The "latitudes and longitudes" form a 'grid' on the globe. This grid can be used to locate any place in terms of latitudes and longitudes.
EXPLANATION:
Latitudes and longitudes are 'imaginary lines' on the globe. The latitudes run east and west whereas longitudes run north and south. Using the latitudes and longitudes, the angular distance of the place can be determined and the 'location of a place' in degrees can be obtained.
