Explanation and Etymology - (緯度) ido
緯度 (いど, ido) is a Japanese word composed of two kanji characters: 緯 (い, i) which means "latitude" and 度 (ど, do) which means "degree". Therefore, the complete meaning of 緯度 is "latitude in degrees". The word is used to describe the location of a point on the surface of the Earth in relation to the Equator, which is the line of latitude zero. Latitude is measured in degrees, with values ranging from 0° at the Equator to 90° at the North and South poles.
