Geography Questions
1) Using Google Earth go to each of these coordinates. Zoom to the requested altitude for each location (these are heights above mean sea level and are referred to in Google Earth as eye altitude). Briefly describe in 5 to 7 sentences what you see (be sure to identify the feature with a relevant place name!). Note: Use the search feature on the toolbar. Google Earth can adjust for conventional latitude longitude symbols. For example: 46° 51' 03.66" N will appear as 46 51 03.66 N.
a) 46° 51' 03.66" N, 121° 45' 23.8" W (eye alt: 28000 ft)
b) 24° 39' 39.58" S, 15° 28' 26.28" E (eye alt: 5700 ft)
c) 15° 47' 27.06" S, 47° 53' 34.85" W (eye alt: 5350 ft)
