<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- Clark) to Point B.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Clark. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 36.9979, Longitude: -82.7513 In this case, the coordinates for Clark have been provided by the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS). |
