  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Could not locate a highway called PR-11 in the vicinity of Carambei in the State of Parana. Only one highway-called PR-151 - departs from Carambei heading North, therefore assumed that road to be the one along which this collection was made. Georeferenced to 4 km N along PR-151 from the point along PR-151 closest to the approximate center of the town of Carambei, in Mun. Jaguariaíva, Parana. Using Google Maps - Text Search, located the town of Carambei and the only road departing from the town to the North. Using Google Maps - Satellite View to visualize the area, and beginning at the point along PR-151 closest to the approximate center of the town of Carambei (-24.953492, -50.110770), used Google Maps - Measure Distance tool to measure approximately 4 km (4.0000 km) along PR-151 to the North. Using Google Maps - What's Here tool, found coordinates (final) for a point just alongside the road adjacent to the offset. Note: These coordinates happened to be at an elevation of almost exactly 1050 m. Using Measure Distance tool again, found the linear extent of the starting location of the offset by measuring from the starting coordinates along PR-151 near the approximate center of Carambei to the farthest extent of Carambei along PR-151 (-24.941479, -50.108257). Input linear extent (1.3580 km), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), distance precision (1 km), datum (WGS84), and measurement error (0.0005 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
