<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- Fluorine) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Fluorine. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 36.8863, Longitude: -116.6970 In this case, the coordinates for Fluorine have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). |
