A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Altoona) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Altoona. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 32.4546, Longitude: -91.4537 In this case, the coordinates for Altoona have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
