Lines of latitude and longitude help you locate places on the Earth's surface with greater accuracy because they are measurements of distance in degrees, which can be converted to miles, nautical miles, etc. Finding the distance, for instance, of a place North of the equator and East of the Prime Meridian can give you an exact location.
