latitude and longitude of important landmarks

Almoraboy · Jan 13th, 2006, 00:59

hi all,

please give me the latitude n longitude of the following places:

1) adi kailash peak
2) jolingkong lake (or parvati tal whatever it is called)
3) om parvat
4) chiyalekh top

i think rajkumar might be having the necessary information. also, how do u install hindi fonts on firefox? (needed to read amar ujala's local news). u can check them easily on ie but i prefer firefox

. all it shows are questions marks in place ofthe hindi font.

Have you tried Google Earth....you could get the co-ordinates I guess...at least with a bit of extrapolation.

If you've got Microsoft Encarta, its map is very good. At maximum zoom my screen gives 6 miles to the inch, so it's quite detailed. The cursor can be set to read out Lat and Long directly to the nearest minute. It also covers the whole planet.
