  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to wikimapia.org for additional locality information for Praia da Guarita (http://wikimapia.org/23835939/pt/Praia-da-Guarita, accessed: 1/26/2016). Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Praia da Guarita in Mun. Torres, Rio Grande do Sul. Used the reference material and Google Maps - Earth View to locate Praia da Guarita, which is adjacent to Parque da Guarita. Used Google Maps – What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the beach. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to approximate the linear extent of the beach by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate farthest extent of the beach (overextending slightly to incorporate all area that may be considered Praia da Guarita). Input coordinates, coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), extent of named place (1160 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (Named Place: Bounded Area).
