Cwm Silicon (Welsh for Silicon Valley ) is an epithet applied to a region of South Wales in the far west of Newport that attracted interest and inward investment from the technology sector in the early 2000s.[ citation needed ]
As of 2010 [update] , the future of the area as an important technological centre was uncertain following the closure of its key LG factory in August 2003.[ citation needed ] The area is next to the M4 and is a centre for high-technology companies, like much of the M4 corridor.

A geographic coordinate system is a coordinate system that enables every location on Earth to be specified by a set of numbers, letters or symbols. The coordinates are often chosen such that one of the numbers represents a vertical position and two or three of the numbers represent a horizontal position; alternatively, a geographic position may be expressed in a combined three-dimensional Cartesian vector. A common choice of coordinates is latitude, longitude and elevation. To specify a location on a plane requires a map projection.
