The E-W thing is undetermined since I've flown over both oceans a bunch of times, but, N = Kiruna, S = Singapore.

How is E and W defined here?

In my case, since I have done round the world trips, it's defined by the largest E-W gap in places I've been on land.

So Stockholm is E because you flew east to get there?

I flew west to get to Stockholm, but also left it going west. The last ~week of my life in which there were longitudes I hadn't flown through, the gap in longitudes was Berlin-Stockholm. Stockholm is E because there's a 95 degree gap between the E and W points, my largest gap.
