  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Presidente Soares is not an officially recognized name for any Municipality; however, Using Google Maps - Text search & Satellite View located a place named Vargem Grande which lies along MG-111 and is found relatively close (<7 km) from another place named Presidente Soares (-20.416626, -41.966731), in Mun. Alto Jequitibá, Minas Gerais. Therefore, georeferenced to the closest point at 800 m to the point where MG-111 comes closest to the named place Vargem Grande (-20.474091, -41.994154). Using Google Maps - Terrain view and What's Here tool, located this point using the criteria described, and found its coordinates (final). Because the boundaries of Vargem Grande are poorly defined, used Google Maps - Measure Distance tool to approximate linear extent by measuring to the farthest point at 800m elevation (-20.453579, -41.983916) that is equally distant from the center of Vargem Grande (-20.472764, -41.995013) as it is to the next nearest named place (in this case, Nova Loanda, -20.451246, -41.959969). Input linear extent (2139.5 m), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
