    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to Geonames.org (http://www.geonames.org/maps/google_-22.95_-44.5.html, accessed 7/30/2015) for locality information for Pedra do Frade (synonymous with Pico do Frade). The highest elevation of Pico do Frade is approximately 1450 m. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the peak of Pico do Frade in Macaé, Rio de Janeiro. Used the reference material and Google Maps - Terrain and Satellite Views to locate Pico do Frade. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the peak of the mountain (using visual evidence to approximate). Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to approximate (and slightly overestimate) the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of elevation 1400 m of the mountain (at: -22.952368, -44.494500). Input coordinate source (locality description), coordinates, datum (WGS84), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), extent of named place (323.28 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).
