Have you ever wondered what city is located at the same latitude as yours?
Have you ever been curious if the Warsaw is located "higher" or "lower" than London
or surprised that Madrid and New York, with different climates,
are about the same latitude?
The main purpose of this map was* to compare locations of cities around the world.
But as cities placed about the same latitude can have completely different climate,
the layer with climates zones was added.
*was to have fun while learning Leaflet :)
Click on the circle representing the citiy and create a horizontal line. Move around the map to compare location with other cities. Check or uncheck layers you want to be visible. You can clear lines layer using erase button on the top left.
Locations of capital cities were obtained via QuickOSM QGIS plugin using key=capital and value=yes.
Climates zones are based on the Köppen-Geiger climate classification.
Climate data were downloaded from The World Bank Data Catalog.
Climates names and colors are based on the wiki article
and climate map image
