The definition is pretty much arbitrary, but it's generally considered the point at which the atmosphere becomes too thin to support conventional flight. In Europe it's considered 62 miles (100km), NASA considers it to be 50 miles (about 80km).

Geography would have a very negligible effect at that altitude. It's a fixed altitude above sea level and doesn't fluctuate
