Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to an area of restinga vegetation at an offset of approximately 11 km west of the approximate geographic center of Barra da Tijuca in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Used Google Maps - Map and Earth Views to locate the city of Barra da Tijuca. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the city. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the city of Barra da Tijuca (spatial extent provided by Google Maps). Input coordinates (-22.995332, -43.369099), coordinate source (locality description), coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), offset distance (11 km), offset direction (W), linear extent (8.790 km), distance precision (1 km), and measurement error (.005 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset at a heading). Moved the offset coordinates to the nearest area of resting (at: -23.032162, -43.470404); used these coordinates as the final coordinates.)
Coordinate Uncertainty(m): 14738
