01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Denpasar—670,210, Asia/Makassar, and source coordinates—from live travel claims. Those fields identify and compare the record; they do not prove current transport, accessibility, census totals, or a City Atlas Club visit.
Wikidata's localized description: city in Bali Province, Indonesia.
02This city's dataset fingerprint
The source row behind Denpasar is GeoNames ID 1645528. Its recorded administrative path is Kota Denpasar → Bali → Indonesia, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat. Denpasar occurs once as a primary city label in this atlas sample; the numeric ID remains the durable source key if names change. The city row itself was updated 2026-06-10; that date belongs to the source record, not to every transport or visitor detail in the real destination.
Within the fixed 1,206-record atlas, Denpasar ranks 821 by recorded population. Inside the 29 selected Indonesia entries it ranks 25; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 459. Its 670,210 population value is 0.57 times the 1,166,066 median for the country cohort and 0.66 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Denpasar sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected Indonesia entries. Denpasar's recorded value is materially below the country-cohort median used here. These comparisons describe this selected dataset only; they are not current census rankings or official urban-area boundaries.

Denpasar's nearest-coordinate gap belongs to the wider half of atlas distances. 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 1645528, the coordinate pair 8.6500 / 115.2167, country rank 25 of 29, and neighbor GeoNames 1626801 at 169.288 km bind Denpasar to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Denpasar's reference point is 8.6500° south and 115.2167° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Makassar is shared by 5 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA is shared by 429 rows. Denpasar's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Denpasar's point falls in the near-equatorial coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Denpasar's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Denpasar, 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.
