What the data says — and does not say

This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Ulyanovsk—626,540, Europe/Ulyanovsk, 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.

Source identity and administrative path

The source row behind Ulyanovsk is GeoNames ID 479123. Its recorded administrative path is Ulyanovskiy Rayon → Ulyanovsk → Russia, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat.

Ulyanovsk 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 2022-10-16; that date belongs to the source record, not to every transport or visitor detail in the real destination.

02

Coordinate, time-zone and class cohorts

Ulyanovsk's reference point is 54.3282° north and 48.3866° east. The IANA identifier Europe/Ulyanovsk is shared by 1 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA is shared by 429 rows. Ulyanovsk's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels.

Ulyanovsk's point falls in the higher-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Ulyanovsk's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Ulyanovsk, 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.
