• Georeferencing Method

  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. interpreted this georeference as: surroundings of the city of Porto Seguro, in Mun. Porto Seguro, Bahia. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, and a paper map of the area (Superintendência do Desenvolvimento do Nordeste. "Porto Seguro" [Map]. Mapas da Região Nordeste do Brasil – 1:100,000. Convênio SUDENE – Governo do Estado da Bahia. SUDENE, Recife, PE, Brasil. 1977) located the city of Porto Seguro. Using Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs, found coordinates for the approximate geographic center of the city of Porto Seguro according to the boundaries shown on the paper map (-16.4458402 -39.0694857), which are more likely to accurately portray the center and span of the named place at the time of collection, in 1962. Using Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps), estimated the linear extent by measuring a straight line from the selected coordinates at the approximate center of historical Porto Seguro to the approximate geographic center of the nearest named place, Arraial da Ajuda (-16.4895365 -39.0730798), also according to its boundaries shown on the paper map. Input coordinates, linear extent (4879.38 m), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Near a named place).
