  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Assumed the road described in this locality is the road named "Estrada Trancoso" which branches from BA-986 ca. 5 km west of the center of the town of Arraial D'Ajuda and then heads generally south directly towards the town of Trancoso. Therefore, georeferenced to 5 km along the route following "Estrada Trancoso" from the town of Arraial D'Ajuda to the town of Trancoso. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the towns of Arraial D'Ajuda and Trancoso. Because it is conceivable that the collector could have initiated his distance measuring either at the place where BA-986 departs from the center of the city of Arraial D'Ajuda heading west (-16.4889707 -39.0740454) or where "Estrada Trancoso" branches from BA-986 (ca. 5 km W of the city center) and begins to head south towards Trancoso (-16.4824379 -39.1196001), chose the midpoint along road BA-986 between these two places as the starting point for the offset (-16.480262 -39.0946341), and used the road distance from this point to the further of the two endpoints of this stretch of road as the linear extent (2.79140 km). Beginning at this selected midpoint, used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure ca. 2.8 km W along BA-986 and then ca. 2.2 km S along "Estrada Trancoso", for a total distance of approximately 5 km (5.00026 km) from the selected starting coordinates towards Trancoso. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find coordinates for the offset. Input coordinates, linear extent (2.79140 km), measurement error (0.0005 km), and distance precision (1 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset along a path).
