For services utilizing switched access, mileage measurements for rate schedules are based on the distance in airline miles between rate centers associated with the originating and terminating stations.

The distance between the originating and terminating points is calculated by using the "V" and "H" coordinates ofthe serving wire centers as defined by BellCore (Bell Communications Research), in the following manner: Step 1: Obtain the "V" and "H" coordinates for the serving wire center or network access point serving the Customer s location and the called/calling station. Step 2: Obtain the difference between the "V" coordinates. Obtain the difference between the "H" coordinates. Step 3: Square the differences obtained in Step 2. Step 4: Add the squares of the "V" difference and "H" difference obtained in Step 3. Step 5: Divide the sum of the square obtained in Step 4 by ten (10). Round to the next higher whole number if any fraction results from the division. Step 6: Obtain the square root of the whole number obtained in Step 5. Round to the next higher whole number if any fraction is obtained. This is the distance between the originating and terminating locations of the call.
