01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Nowrangapur—1,220,946, Asia/Kolkata, 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 Nowrangapur is GeoNames ID 1261162. Its recorded administrative path is Nabarangpur → Odisha → India, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat. Nowrangapur 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 2024-01-06; 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, Nowrangapur ranks 430 by recorded population. Inside the 109 selected India entries it ranks 38; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 254.

Nowrangapur'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 1261162, the coordinate pair 19.2311 / 82.5483, country rank 38 of 109, and neighbor GeoNames 1258393 at 185.22 km bind Nowrangapur to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Nowrangapur's reference point is 19.2311° north and 82.5483° 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. Nowrangapur's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Nowrangapur's point falls in the lower-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Nowrangapur's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Nowrangapur, 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.
