Latitude and longitude are included on maps primarily because **it is a way to determine the exact location of any spot in the world**. This system of coordinates allows for precise navigation and positioning, enabling travelers and researchers to find and refer to specific locations globally. While the other options have some merit, the key purpose of latitude and longitude is to provide a universal framework for identifying locations on the Earth's surface.
