  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the closest forested area to the approximate geographic midpoint between the center of the city of Guarapari (in Mun. Guarapari) and the center of the town of Iconha (in Mun. Iconha), Espírito Santo. Using Google Maps - Text Search and Satellite View, located the city of Guarapari and the town of Iconha. Beginning at the approximate geographic center of the city of Guarapari (-20.657283, -40.498161), used Google Maps - Measure Distance tool to measure a straight line to the approximate geographic center of the town of Iconha (-20.791451, -40.811134), then divided that distance by 2 to find the location of the midpoint (-20.724521, -40.654775). Using Google Maps - What's Here tool found coordinates (final) for the closest forested area to this midpoint. Used Measure Distance tool again to estimate linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates in the forest close to the midpoint to the further of the two populated centers named in the locality (Iconha: -20.791451, -40.811134). Input linear extent (18318.0 m), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Between two places).
