Tank Normal Venting Rate Estimation Using Latest Method As in API Std 2000 has included a parameter C factor thermal inbreathing calculation and Y-factor in thermal outbreathing calculation. These parameters subject latitude of plant site.This post will introduce a simple method in find Latitude and Longitude of your plant site using Google Map.Latitude is line appear horizontal on earth with varying curvature from equator which divides the planet into a Northern Hemisphere, a Southern Hemisphere and has a latitude of 0°. Latitude is ranging from 0° at the equator to +90° at the North poles and -90° at the South Pole.
Methodology
Google map is widely used by many engineer to locate longitude and latitude of plant. site Following is simple steps to find longitude and latitude of a plant site.
Step 1 : Goes to Google map (http://maps.google.com/)
Step 2 : Type location of your plant site (example Ras Laffan in Qatar)

Step 3 : Move mouse and point to A.
Step 4 : Right click and select "Whats here ?"
Latitude and longitude of location A will appear in Search Box. (see below)
Lattitude = 25.924887
Longitude = 51.575317
