Lines of longitude, also known as meridians, run between the North and South Poles. They measure east-west position in degrees, minutes, and seconds. The Prime Meridian, which runs through Greenwich, England, is assigned the value of 0 degrees. Meridians to the west of the Prime Meridian are assigned negative values, and those to the east are assigned positive values. For example, the longitude of Seattle, Washington is 122° 19' 51.04" W, which converts to the (negative) decimal value of -122.328567.
