Latitudes and longitudes of a place can be found by followimg method:
- Longitudes denote the distance of that location from the prime meridian, set at England. So, if you know the perpendicular distance between your position and prime meridian line you can calculate the longitude. 95kms=1 degree
- Latitudes measure the distance in degrees from the equator, which is called as 0 degree. So if ypu know the distance from equator l, you can calculate the approx latitude of that place. 111km=1 degree
Good luck
