Source identity and administrative path

The source row behind Aurangabad is GeoNames ID 1278149. Its recorded administrative path is Aurangabad → Maharashtra → India, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat.

This pattern can reveal whether other catalog references are geographically close, but it cannot establish whether a border crossing is possible or practical, or whether rail, road, fare, or journey-time connections exist.

Read as one record signature, GeoNames 1278149, the coordinate pair 19.8776 / 75.3423, country rank 42 of 109, and neighbor GeoNames 1264115 at 112.637 km bind Aurangabad to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.

Coordinate, time-zone and class cohorts

Aurangabad's reference point is 19.8776° north and 75.3423° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Kolkata is shared by 109 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA2 is shared by 341 rows. Aurangabad's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels.

Aurangabad's point falls in the lower-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Aurangabad's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Aurangabad, so the profile preserves that missing value instead of guessing terrain.

Together these fields form a reproducible identity check for this page, not a claim about walkability, climate or accessibility.
