  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to find the precise location of "Fazenda Reserva;" instead, georeferenced to 85 km southwest of the city of Guarapuava in Paraná, Brazil. Used Google Maps - Map and Earth Views to locate the city of Guarapuava. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the city (-25.388387, -51.478621). Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent of the city by measuring from the selected center coordinates to the farthest extent of the city, at -25.339298, -51.428362 (spatial extent provided by Google Maps). Input: coordinates (-25.388387, -51.478621), coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), linear extent (7.48 km), offset direction (SW), offset distance (85 km), measurement error (0.01 km), and distance precision (1 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the offset coordinates (-25.9309469, -52.0758963) and the uncertainty radius (35599 m). According to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide: Offset, Offset at a Heading.
