  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the closest point along the Pico da Bandeira trail to the approximate geographic midpoint of the Pico da Bandeira trail, in Mun. Caparaó, Minas Gerais. Using Google Maps - Text Search and Terrain View, located the summit of Pico da Bandeira and the path leading up towards the peak from one trailhead (-20.409931, -41.836772) and back down to a second trailhead (-20.457759, -41.808549). Using Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool, measured a straight line between the two most distant points along the trail, the two trailheads, then divided this distance by 2 to estimate the location of the geographic midpoint of the trail (-20.433848, -41.822663). Using Google Maps - What's Here tool, found coordinates (final) for the closest point along the trail to this midpoint. Using Measure Distance tool again, determined the linear extent by measuring from the selected final coordinates alongside the trail nearest to its midpoint to the farthest extent of the trail at the further of the two trailheads (-20.409931, -41.836772). Input linear extent (4194.5 m), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
