  • Georeferencing Method

    BioGeomancer, Guide to Best Practices for Georefer. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the shore of Ponta Grossa dos Fidalgos (along Lagoa Feia) in Campos dos Goytacazes, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; taking into account the added uncertainty of the word "prox." (proximo, or near) in the locality description. Used Google Maps - Earth and Map Views to locate Ponta Grossa dos Fidalgos along Lagoa Feia. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the shore of Ponta Grossa dos Fidalgos (using visual evidence to approximate). Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to approximate the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic midpoint of the shore of the nearest named place along the lake, Dores de Macabu, then halving this distance (4780 m). Chose the larger of 2 km or 200% of the linear extent as the final linear extent, in accordance with the Near a Feature method of the Biogeomancer Guide to Best Practices for Georeferencing. Input coordinates, coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), linear extent (9560.0 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Biogeomancer Guide to Best Practices for Georeferencing, Near a Feature).
