A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line from Point A (ie- Rising Sun) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Rising Sun. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 40.7024, Longitude: -75.5963 In this case, the coordinates for Rising Sun have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
