Latitudes and Longitudes would help you in almost zeroing in on any place. When detailed right down to seconds you can pin point any place on the globe. But do you always want such pin pointed accuracy ? Or sometimes you would do with just identifying the "region" of the place. In that case, Timezone, Continent, Hemisphere would be other such attributes that would be able to "roughly" let you know of the place's location.
