  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to a map from Scielo.br (http://www.scielo.br/img/revistas/rbzool/v23n3/a14fig01.gif, accessed: 9/22/2015) and Wikimapia.org (http://wikimapia.org/#lang=en&lat=-7.158806&lon=-34.860950&z=15&m=b&show=/730334/Buraquinho-Urban-Forrest&search=Mata%20do%20Buraquinho, accessed 9/22/2015) for locality information for Mata do Buraquinho. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Mata do Buraquinho in João Pessoa, Paraíba, Brazil. Used the reference materials and Google Maps - Earth and Map Views to locate Mata do Buraquinho. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of Mata do Buraquinho. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the forest (used visual evidence to determine). Input coordinates, coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), extent of named place (2010 m), and measurement error (10 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Bounded Area).
