  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to an offset of 0.5 mi "above" bridge (determined to be upstream) on Highway 61, Lake County, Minnesota. Used Google Maps – Earth/Map Views to locate the bridge (Highway 61) crossing over Gooseberry River. Used Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool to measure an offset of 0.5 mi upstream from the bridge along Gooseberry River. Used Google Maps What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the offset, on the north shore of the river, as mentioned in the label. Used Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool again to find the linear extent of the starting location (bridge over Gooseberry River) by figuring out the length of the bridge and dividing that number in half. Input coordinate source (locality description), coordinates, datum (WGS84) coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), extent of named place (0.01319 m), distance precision (½ km) and measurement error (0.01 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset along a path).
