        This particular image version allows identification and marking of any pixel by its decimalize longitude and latitude parameters applying the following formulas:
        
         - pixel from top edge = (90 - latitude) / 0,36
 
         - pixel from left hand side = (180 + longitude) / 0,36
 
        
        The image is a light version of the image  Earthmap1000x500.jpg (reduced in size without quality loss).
