Georeferencing Method
Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referenced several similar sites with lat/long coordinates already in the database to locate the "Reserva Natural do Cachoeira"; one site in particular (NY Site IRN: 549926; 25 18 S / 48 41 W) included the phrase "Trilha do Corvo" in the precise locality string (although the collector and year did not match). Assuming that the place described in this location description as "Trilha do Corvo" is found relatively close to the other collection made along "Trilha do Corvo", georeferenced this site to the point at 100 m elevation closest to the lat/long coordinates of the other "Trilha do Corvo" site (25 18 S / 48 41 W). Using Google Maps - Terrain View, mapped the given coordinates, and visualized the elevation of the surrounding areas. Using Google Maps - What's Here tool, found coordinates (final) for the point at 100 m elevation closest to the lat/long coordinates of the reference site. Using Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool, estimated linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest point at 100 m on the same side of the slope as the referenced position of "Trilha do Corvo" (-25.307048, -48.675429) primarily based on the coordinates from the exiting site, but also visually apparent using Google Maps - Satellite view. Input linear extent (1009.0 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: Defined Area).
