| <2> | The location has been supplied by the Geographic Names Information System - which is maintained by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). While these values should be definitive, we have found that accuracy can vary and you should double-check the location if accuracy is required. |
| <3> | The elevation is an estimate for the area around America - it will be higher in some places and lower in others. |
| <4> | Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' (or point-to-point) distance. A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- America) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in America. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 40.6792, Longitude: -85.7019 In this case, the coordinates for America have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). |
