Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to 2000m height at Serra do Caparaó, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Using Google Maps - Terrain and Map Views - located the Parque Nacional do Caparaó, located the part of the Parque that belongs to the Minas Gerais State. Using Terrain View (Google Maps) located all the points in the Minas Gerais part of the feature with 2000m height, using Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) measured a straight line between the extremes points with this altitude (-20.488379, -41.830788 and -20.419540, -41.828213). The point at 2000m closest to the midpoint of this line was selected as the geographic center of the feature (-20.454471, -41.829426). Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to approximate the linear extent by measuring from the select geographic center to the farthest extent of the Parque Nacional do Caparaó with 2000m high (-20.412105, -41.835568). Input coordinates (-20.454471, -41.829426), linear extent (4.69km), measurement error (0.01km) into MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (4702m). According to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Bounded Area.)
