Each system is unique, yet each interacts with the others.
Your question could mean one of two different things.
You could be asking "How do I figure out the longitude and latitude
of, let's say, Killeen, Texas."
The answer to that is: You look on a map or a globe that has latitude
and longitude lines printed on it, find Killeen, Texas, and estimate its
coordinates as well as you can from the lines printed nearest to it.
Or you could be asking "If I'm out in the middle of the ocean at night,
how do I figure out the longitude and latitude of where I am ?"
I'm afraid the answer to that is far too complicated to write here.
All I can say is: The science of "Navigation" was developed over a period
of hundreds of years. If you look at the history of sea exploration through
the centuries, you see how the explorers ventured farther and farther from
their home ports as time went on. The reason for that is that they were
developing better and better methods of figuring out where they were as
they sailed.
And about 20 years ago, that all changed. Drastically. Now, anybody at all
can walk into his neighborhood sporting-goods store, and buy a little device
that fits in his shirt pocket or in the palm of his hand, and whenever he has a
view of the sky, it can give him the latitude and longitude of the place where
he's standing, more accurately than the best navigators in the US Navy or
the British Armada could ever calculate it before.
That was when countries started putting up bunches of little satellites
to broadcast signals to our pocket receivers.
The satellites that the US put up are called the Global Positioning System . . .
the GPS.

Answer:
C.) influence how land is used
Explanation:
Among the physiographic and archaeological variables used for the elaboration of the settlement pattern are the altitude, the phytogeography, the area covered by the sites, the types of sites, their distance from the water, the type of water sources, the number of low floor structures per site, the diameter and depth dimensions of the low floor structures, the chronology obtained from radiocarbon and thermoluminescence analysis, the insertion into the terrain model, the solar orientation, the prevailing winds and the field of eyesight. The compilation of these archaeological distribution and implantation data and the observation of their characteristics aim to create a settlement pattern of the populations of origin of a given area.
