<1> | Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'point-to-point' distance. A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Pioneer Estates) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Pioneer Estates. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 33.6375, Longitude: -112.1715 In this case, the coordinates for Pioneer Estates have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). |
