The Magen Avraham counts the halachic day from dawn (alot hashachar) to nightfall, so his sof zman shema is earlier. The Vilna Gaon (GRA) counts from sunrise to sunset. Both times are listed on this page so you can follow your own minhag.

Times are computed from the coordinates of Santiago (-33.45°, -70.67°) and the city elevation (520m), using the KosherJava engine: the same one that powers MyZmanim and the Otot app.

Yes. Elevation affects sunrise and sunset; Santiago sits at 520m above sea level, and that is factored into every calculation.
