A straight line distance ignores obstructions like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Fordsville) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Fordsville. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 31.0591, Longitude: -89.7609 In this case, the coordinates for Fordsville have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). |
