I think the dots are somewhere closer to the 300 kilometer or 200 mile cube range; but I'm not entirely sure whether I did the conversions right on that (I'm pretty new to the whole GIS thing). That's on the big map. On the small map, I believe they would be a bit bigger than that.

Edit: Just a note; that's width/height of cube (or diameter if you're treating it as a circle); not radius
