地球部分（Earth part） First speak the basics - the earth (I) earth (shape and size, latitude and longitude) 1. shapes and sizes: The shape of the earth is an irregular sphere with slightly flattened poles. The average radius of the earth is 6371 km, the equatorial radius is 6378 km, and the polar radius is 6357 km. The equatorial circumference is about 40 thousand km. (1) the axis of rotation of the earths axis (2) the poles of the earth pass through the earths core, intersecting the earths surface at two points. A point near the North Star (North) is called the north pole; the opposite of the north pole is called the South pole. 2. latitude and latitude, longitude and longitude (1) weft: the weft is round, also called weft coil, ranging in length. The equator is the longest, gradually shortened from the equator to the poles, and finally becomes a point. Latitude indicates East-West direction. Latitude: the equator is zero latitude. North of the equator latitude, called latitude, with N as code; south of the equator latitude is called latitude, with S code. Each of the 90 degrees south latitude, latitude. The distance between two latitudes, i.e., the 1 latitude, is about 111km. Low latitude and high latitude and low latitude equatorial Division: 0 degrees ~30 degrees; in latitude 30 degrees ~60 degrees high latitude 60 degrees ~90 degrees; The northern and southern hemispheres divide north of the equator to the northern hemisphere, and the south to the south of the equator. (2) Meridian: also called meridian. The warp is a semicircle, and all meridians are equal. Everything on earth through the axis plane with the ground is cut into a circle, called the meridian circle. Longitude indicates north-south direction. Longitude: actually, the longitude is the angle between the planes of the two meridians. The international regulations, put a line through the London Greenwich Observatory site of the center line is 0 degrees of longitude, also called the prime meridian. From the
