• Georeferencing Method

  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the city of Pinhal in Mun. Pinhal, Rio Grande do Sul; taking into account the added uncertainty of the word "vicinity" stated in the locality description. Used Google Maps - Earth View to locate the city of Pinhal. Used Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find coordinates of the approximate geographic center of Pinhal (using visual evidence to approximate). Because the center of the nearest named place, Rodeio Bonito, is farther from the center of Pinhal than the linear extent of Pinhal itself, followed Case A of the Near a Named Place method. Used Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to approximate the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic center of the city of Rodeio Bonito, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), extent of named place (2975 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (Named Place: Near a Named Place).
