    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the neighborhood of Dos Irmãos in Recife, Pernambuco. Used Google Maps – Earth and Map Views to locate the neighborhood of Dos Irmãos in the city of Recife. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the city of Dos Irmãos. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the neighborhood (spatial boundaries provided by Google Maps). Input coordinate source (locality description), coordinates, coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), extent of named place (1960.0 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Bounded Area).
