Latitude generator

Last modified: April 3, 2025

The Latitude generator creates data representing geographical latitude coordinates. Latitude values indicate the position of a point north or south of the Earth’s equator and range from -90.0° to +90.0°:

  • Positive values (e.g., 48.8566) represent locations in the Northern Hemisphere.
  • Negative values (e.g., -33.8688) represent locations in the Southern Hemisphere.

This generator is used for populating fields requiring realistic latitude data in applications such as geographic analysis, mapping, and location-based testing.

Generator properties

The table provides key details about the generator, including the short name, sample of the generated data, the supported data types, and whether it is specific to a particular country.

Matching rules

The generator can be assigned to a column whose name is ‘Latitude’, regardless of the table name.

Configure additional options

The tool allows you to customize the minimum and maximum values for the Latitude generator. The default range of values is from -89 to 89.
