01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Iskandar Puteri—575,977, Asia/Kuala_Lumpur, 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.
02This city's dataset fingerprint
The source row behind Iskandar Puteri is GeoNames ID 10063567. Its recorded administrative path is Daerah Johor Baharu → Johor → Malaysia, and GeoNames classifies the place as a populated place. Iskandar Puteri 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 2024-04-22; that date belongs to the source record, not to every transport or visitor detail in the real destination.

That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.

The IANA identifier Asia/Kuala_Lumpur is shared by 19 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPL is shared by 243 rows.

Iskandar Puteri's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly.
