  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to Wikimapia.org for additional locality information for Ilha do Cardoso (http://wikimapia.org/2939838/Ilha-do-Cardoso-Cardoso-s-Island, accessed: 9/30/2015). Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the Praia do Marujá on Ilha do Cardoso, Mun. Cananéia, São Paulo, Brazil. Used the reference material and Google Maps - Earth and Map Views to locate Praia do Marujá (beach). Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of Praia do Marujá (using visual evidence from the satellite imagery to approximate). Because of the difficulty in determining the spatial extent of Praia do Marujá, used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to approximate the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic center of nearest named place of similar locality type, Praia de Lajes (at: -25.179755, -47.953481), then halving this distance. Input coordinates, coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), linear extent (2940.0 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: Undefined Area).
