  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the city of Rio de Janeiro in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Used Google Maps – Earth and Map Views to locate the city of Rio de Janeiro. Used the Google Maps – What's Here Tool to find the approximate geographic center of the city. Used the Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool to find the approximate linear extent of the city by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the city (to: -22.750309, -43.102267). Input coordinates, coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), linear extent (39840 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Bounded Area).
