I then tested for a relatively well-shot, 1000km altitude environment in Kyrgyzstan, with ample geology and foliage to analyse, and it was over 6000 km off (it guessed Colorado), and none of the guesses were even in Asia. But this was in under 2 mins. I told it to try again- over 5k km away, it took 7 mins, and it suggested Australia, Europe, NZ, Argentina etc. Nothing in central Asia.
