Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' (or point-to-point) distance. A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Ava) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Ava. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 37.8886, Longitude: -89.4965 In this case, the coordinates for Ava have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
