I think data['Longitude'] and data['Latitude'] should be swapped in plt.scatter?

Hey Liezel,

Thank you for your comment!

Longitude is a measure of the distance along the parallel (east-west), where the reference meridian is the Prime (Greenwich) meridian. Latitude, on the other hand, is a measure of the distance along the meridian (north-south), where the reference parallel is the Equator. Therefore, Longitude is correctly identified as the x-axis, while Latitude as the y-axis.

Hope this helps! :)

ahh right sorry! thanks for the reply!

So, for the scatter plot, 
x = longitude

y = latitude

correct?

but if I heard it correctly (and if the caption is correct,too). I noticed the lecturer said around 6:03:

"In order to resemble the map of the world, the y-axis will be longitude, while x-axis latitude"

Is it something I missed?

Hey David,

Thanks for pointing this out.

There indeed seems to be a mistake at 6:03. The correct statement is:

In order to resemble the the map of the world, the x-axis will be the longitude, while the y-axis - latitude.

This is how the scatter plot is constructed in the Python code.

Kind regards,
