Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the rock formation known as Pedra da Conceição, close to the town of Pedra Azul, in Mun. Pedra Azul, Minas Gerais. From the Wikipedia page for Pedra Azul, Minas Gerais (http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedra_Azul) determined Pedra da Conceição to be a prominent rock formation close to the center of the town with a staircase going all the way to the top. Using Google Maps - Terrain View and Satellite View, located the only large rock formation that matches these descriptions. Using Google Maps - Explore, verified that the supposed formation is actually the Pedra da Conceição using a geo-tagged photo taken atop the formation which contains the words "Pedra da Conceição" (http://www.panoramio.com/photo/42453282). Using Google Maps - What's Here tool, found coordinates (final) for the approximate geographic center of the formation. Using Google Maps - Measure Distance tool, determined linear extent by measuring from the selected final coordinates at the approximate geographic center of Pedra da Conceição (near the summit) to the farthest extent of the base of the formation (-16.016349, -41.287968), which is sharply defined at approximately 800m elevation. Input linear extent (1230.0 m), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Defined area).)
Coordinate Uncertainty(m): 1232.07
Geodetic Datum: WGS84
Coordinates: (-16.0208, -41.2774)
