    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Caxixe Quente appears to be both a rocky formation/hill and a town (adjacent to hill). Referred to Wikimapia.org (http://wikimapia.org/34220304/pt/Alto-Caxixe-Quente and http://wikimapia.org/34222152/pt/Cachoeira-do-Caxixe-Quente, accessed: 12/30/2015) and multiple geotagged images (including: http://www.panoramio.com/photo/30644924, accessed: 12/30/2015) for locality information for Caxixe Quente. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Caxixe Quente (mountain) in Castelo, Espírito Santo, Brazil. Used the reference material and Google Maps – Earth and Terrain Views to locate the mountain of Caxixe Quente and adjacent village also named Caxixe Quente. Used the Google Maps – What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the hill. Used the Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool to approximate the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the mountainous ridge (using Satellite Imagery to determine, at: -20.528845, -41.158035). Linear extent encompasses town of Caxixe Quente in its entirety. Input coordinates, coordinate source (locality description), coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), linear extent (5160 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).
