Antimeridian

Data provided by  National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

The Antimeridian is the +/-180 degree line of longitude, exactly opposite the Prime Meridian. It is often used as the basis for the International Date Line (IDL) because it passes through the open waters of the Pacific Ocean. However, this is a simplification of the actual IDL, which curtails several countries.

Equator

Data provided by  National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

Prime Meridian

Data provided by  National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

The Prime Meridian is the meridian (line of longitude) at which the longitude is defined to be 0 degrees. The Prime Meridian and its opposite, the Antimeridian (at +/-180 degrees longitude), form a "great circle" that divides the Earth into the Eastern and Western Hemispheres. By international convention, the Prime Meridian passes through the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, in southeast London, known as the International Meridian or Greenwich Meridian.

SRTM30+ Global 1-km Digital Elevation Model (DEM): Version 11: Bathymetry: Hillshade

Data provided by  National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

A global 1-km resolution bathymetric digital elevation model (DEM) grayscale hillshade of the ocean floor. Derived from the SRTM30+ v11 dataset produced at Scripps Institution of Oceanography from United States Geological Survey (USGS) 30 arc-second SRTM30 gridded DEM data, itself a product of NASA's Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM). Bathymetry are based on the Smith and Sandwell global 1 arc-minute grid between latitudes +/- 81 degrees.

SRTM30+ Global 1-km Digital Elevation Model (DEM): Version 11: Land Surface: Hillshade

Data provided by  National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

A global 1-km resolution land surface digital elevation model (DEM) grayscale hillshade. Derived from the SRTM30+ v11 dataset produced at Scripps Institution of Oceanography from United States Geological Survey (USGS) 30 arc-second SRTM30 gridded DEM data, itself a product of NASA's Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM). GTOPO30 data are used for high latitudes where SRTM data are not available.

Tropic of Cancer

Data provided by  National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

The Tropic of Cancer lies at 23d 26' 22" (23.4394 degrees) north of the Equator and marks the most northerly latitude at which the sun can appear directly overhead at noon. This event occurs at the June solstice, when the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun to its maximum extent. The Earth's tropical zone ("the tropics") includes everything between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn.
