I'm given to understand they're basically the same thing, just that Laviente is a slightly more official romanization than Raviente. And since we all know what both names refer to, there's no need to be pedantic over it.

I recall some people who played both frontier and mh4(g) saying that dala is about 3/4 the length of ravi. Given that Dala is 440 meters, we can then approximate ravi's length to be about 587 meters.
