These lines measure distances east and west of the Prime Meridian. *** When determining a point of intersection, latitude is read always first.

Equator/Prime Meridian Equator: An imaginary line drawn halfway between the North & South poles. (0° latitude) Prime Meridian: An imaginary line drawn from the North Pole to the South Pole. (0° longitude)
