| <1> | Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'point-to-point' distance. A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Van Wert) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Van Wert. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 40.8654, Longitude: -84.5867 In this case, the coordinates for Van Wert have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). |
