A city is an urban area that is differentiated from a town, village, or hamlet by size, population density, importance, or legal status.
In most parts of the world, cities are generally substantial and nearly always have an urban core, but in the United States many incorporated areas which have a very modest population, or a suburban or even mostly rural character, are designated as cities.
Although city can refer to an agglomeration including suburban and satellite areas, the term is not usually applied to a conurbation (cluster) of distinct urban places, nor for a wider metropolitan area including more than one city, each acting as a focus for parts of the area.

 Latitude   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Latitude is an angular measurement ranging from 0° at the Equator to 90° at the poles (90º N or 90º S).
Lines of latitude other than the Equator are approximately small circles on the surface of the Earth; they are not geodesics since the shortest route between two points at the same latitude involves moving farther away from the equator.
In common usage "latitude" refers to geodetic or geographic latitude φ and is the angle between the equatorial plane and a line that is normal to the reference spheroid, which approximates the shape of the Earth to account for flattening of the poles and bulging of the equator.

You can select a complete listing of all maps for a State, but you should be aware that such a listing may require several minutes to download.

 Create a Geocoded Table from a Map   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
For example, one of the most frequent requests in GIS newsgroups is to get a list of cities with the latitude and longitude of each city together with some data for each city, such as the name, population or other fields.
It is often the case that we can acquire a digital map that shows the locations of points such as cities but which does not have the latitude and longitude of each point explicitly set forth in the data attributes.
This example uses a drawing that shows cities in Europe; however, the same method can be used to create a table with latitude and longitude coordinates (a geocoded table) for any set of points in a drawing.
