Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to 1780m high at Parque Nacional Alto Caparaó, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Using Google Maps located the part of the Parque Nacional Alto Caparaó that belongs to the Minas Gerais State. Using Google Maps - Map View and What's Here Tool, located the approximate geographic center of Minas Gerais' part of the Parque Nacional Alto Caparaó (-20.452157, -41.834423 ). Used Google Maps - Terrain View to find the 1780m elevation. There was more than one point with this elevation inside The Minas Gerais' part of the Parque Nacional Alto Caparaó, used the 1780m high closest to the approximate geographic center (-20.452011, -41.837502) of the feature. Used Google Maps - Measuring Tool to find the linear extent measuring from the 1780m high closest to the geographic center to the farthest extent (still in the Minas Gerais state) of the Parque Nacional Alto Caparaó (-20.533771, -41.806948). Input: coordinates (-20.452011, -41.837502), linear extent (9.53km), measurement error (0.01 km) into MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (9542m). According to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Bounded Area.)
