  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Could not locate the Fazenda Rancho Alegre using any available online references or paper maps; therefore, georeferenced to 2 km along the unnamed side road which branches from the highway to Ibirataia from BR 101 (BA 650) at almost exactly 4 km BR 101, in Mun Ubata, Bahia. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located BR 101, the town of Ibirataia, and the road that connects them, BA 650. Used Measure Distance Tool (Google Maps) to find the unnamed side-road which branches from BA 650 at 4 km from BR 101. Then beginning at the center of the intersection between BA 650 and the unnamed side-road (-13.983116, -39.521880), used Measure Distance tool again to measure approximately 2 km (2.0000 km) along the unnamed side-road. Using Google Maps: "What's Here?" tool, found coordinates for the offset. Used the standard measure of 20 m as the linear extent for the intersection of BA 650 (2 lanes) with the unnamed side-road (1 lane), the starting location of the offset. Input linear extent (0.02 km), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), distance precision (1 km) and measurement error (0.0001 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset along a path).
