Because of this designation, longitude is measured in degrees west or east of the Prime Meridian. For example, 30Â°E, the line passing through eastern Africa, is an angular distance of 30Â° east of the Prime Meridian. 30Â°W, which is in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, is an angular distance of 30Â° west of the Prime Meridian.
Longitude, is a geographic coordinate that specifies the east-west position of a point on the Earth's surface. It is an angular measurement, usually expressed in degrees and denoted by the Greek letter lambda. Meridians connect points with the same longitude. By convention, one of these, the Prime Meridian, which passes through the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, England, was allocated the position of zero degrees longitude. The longitude of other places is measured as the angle east or west from
