  • Georeferencing Method

    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 Serra do Frade (synonymous with Pico do Frade). Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Serra do Frade in Macaé, Rio de Janeiro. Used the reference material and Google Maps - Terrain and Satellite Views to locate Serra do Frade. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the mountain (using visual evidence to approximate). Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to then approximate farthest extent of the mountain (at: -22.960114, -44.520973). Input coordinate source (locality description), coordinates, datum (WGS84), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), extent of named place (3070.0 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).
