Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the shore of Ponta Grossa dos Fidalgos (along Lagoa Feia) in Campos dos Goytacazes, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Used Google Maps - Earth and Map Views to locate Ponta Grossa dos Fidalgos along Lagoa Feia. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the shore of Ponta Grossa dos Fidalgos (using visual evidence to approximate). Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to approximate the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic midpoint of the shore of the nearest named place along the lake, Dores de Macabu, then halving this distance (4780 m). Input coordinates, coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), linear extent (4780.0 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: Undefined Area).)
Coordinate Uncertainty(m): 4786.57
