You and me both. Perpendicular to what I kept asking myself. How can you have a perpendicular boundary when the boundary is likely a spheroid of some sort.

Search "Voronoi diagram" The basic step -- draw a line between adjacent gang centers, and construct the perpendicular bisector of that line. A standard algorithm in computer geometry, giving irregular polygons.
The problem is figuring out what the "gang center" is.

I think the writer meant “equidistant from the home base”, but couldn’t remember the word or phrase.

I assume you draw a line between the two locations and choose a line perpendicular to that.
