Locality Description
Ridge Ne Of Ranch On Ani Flat Road
Location Description
Matched to the GeoNames record for Comstock Lode Mining District, Storey Co., Nevada, United States (http://geonames.org/5502108) based on feature name, state/province, and country using the situate.py script. The script determined that this locality is located within Washoe (featureCode=ADM2), another feature mentioned in this record. Matching Comstock Lode required using a wildcard search. Another place name mentioned in the EMu record ("Ridge Ne Of Ranch On Ani Flat Road") could not be matched and was ignored when determining the coordinates given here. Point coordinates were rounded to 2 decimal places from the values given by GeoNames. The uncertainty radius represents the center-to-corner distance of the bounding box (100 km).
