textboxfor displaying zero value by default in mvc4

For this Double Type Property, Textbox displaying zero by default 

 public double Longitude
    {
        get { return _longitude; }
        set { _longitude = value; }
    }

    //[Required(ErrorMessage = "Please enter latitude")]
    public double Latitude
    {
        get { return _latitude; }
        set { _latitude = value; }
    }

Here is my .cshtml 

<div class="labeldiv">
    @Html.Label("Longitude", new { Class = "lblcls" })
</div>
<div class="fielddiv">
    @Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Longitude, new { Class = "txtbox"})     
</div>
<div class="cleardiv"></div>
<div class="labeldiv">
    @Html.Label("Latitude", new { Class = "lblcls" })
</div>
<div class="fielddiv">
    @Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Latitude, new { Class = "txtbox"})      
</div>

It is because default value of double is 0, so if user leave it empty it still set it to 0. You can set it to nullable if your business logic allowed and handle that situation.

Other than this, You can set default value to input but in double case it cannot be empty:

@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Longitude, new { @Value = "5.5" })
