<1> | 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 drawn from Point A (ie- Clarkfield) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Clarkfield. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 44.7908, Longitude: -95.8079 In this case, the coordinates for Clarkfield have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). |
