Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (This locality description is ambiguous and does not specify whether the collection was made within the city or municipality named Belmonte. Assumed that the collection was most likely made near the city of Belmonte, but included the entire span of municipality into the uncertainty radius. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the town of Belmonte, in Mun. Belmonte Bahia. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the city of Belmonte, and the boundaries of the municipality of Belmonte. Using Google Maps - What's Here tool, found coordinates (final) for the approximate geographic center of the town of Belmonte. Using Google Maps - Measure Distance tool, found the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates at the center of the town of Belmonte to the farthest extent of the municipality of Belmonte (-15.790423, -39.572277). Input linear extent (74543 m), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84) and measurement error (1 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Defined area).
