A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Oakboro) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Oakboro. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 35.2291, Longitude: -80.3333 In this case, the coordinates for Oakboro have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
