  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the point at 950 m elevation closest to the approximate geographic center of all the area at 950 m elevation within the watershed of the Rio São João, found near the town of Carambeí, in Mun. Carambeí, Parana. Using Geonames.org, located a place called São João approximately 10 km NW from the center of the town of Carambeí. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located an unnamed but conspicuously large and undisturbed river drainage system in the immediate vicinity of the place called São João. Using Google Maps - Explore View, found a geo-tagged photograph featuring the words "cachoeira do sao joao" along the main watercourse within this otherwise unnamed drainage system. Using Google Maps - Terrain View, visualized the entire area within the watershed of this river identified as the Rio São João at an elevation of 950 m. Using Google Maps - What's Here tool, found coordinates (final) for the point at 950 m elevation closest to the approximate center of all the area at that elevation. Using Google Maps - Measure Distance tool, Estimated linear extent by measuring from the selected final coordinates to the farthest point within the water shed at an elevation of 950 m (-24.880310, -50.204863). Input linear extent (2872.0 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).
