15 Hemispheres Our Earth is also divided into four hemispheres. A hemisphere is half of a globe. Two imaginary lines are used to create these hemispheres. These imaginary lines are the equator and the prime meridian. The equator is a line around the middle of the earth that divides the globe into the northern and southern hemispheres. The prime meridian is a line around the middle of the earth that divides the globe into the eastern and western hemispheres.

29 Geographic Grids These two imaginary lines help us to create a grid system on the surface of our globe. This grid system helps us identify the exact location of any place on earth. A grid system has lines that are similar to the lines on a sheet of graph paper. Letters of the alphabet are placed on the left hand edge of the grid and numbers are placed on the bottom edge. When you put a number and a letter together you call it a coordinate. Coordinates tell us the exact locations of things on the surface of the earth. Weathermen use this grid system to tell us the location of hurricanes and tropical storms. Ship captains and airplane pilots use it to locate where they are and where they are going.
