Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Floresta Nacional in the city of São Francisco de Paula. Used the reference material and Google Maps - Earth View to locate Floresta Nacional de São Francisco de Paula. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of Floresta Nacional de São Francisco de Paula, using visual evidence to approximate. Used the Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool to find the approximate linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the park (to: -29.393426, -50.379313). Input coordinates, coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), extent of named place (4710 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Bounded Area).
