Pasting these two numbers into any maps search box will take you straight to Venice, Italy.
The same point can also be written in degrees-minutes-seconds (DMS) format, the older convention still used on nautical charts and paper maps: 45° 26' 14" N, 12° 19' 57" E. Decimal degrees are easier to type and calculate with, while DMS mirrors how coordinates are read aloud or plotted by hand — both describe the exact same point on the globe, just in different units.
Knowing the precise coordinates of Venice is useful well beyond navigation — it is what powers distance to the nearest airport, time zone lookups and sea temperature data for Venice, since every one of those calculations starts from the same latitude and longitude values shown above.
