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 Ilha do Cardoso in Mun. Cananéia, São Paulo, Brazil. Used the reference material and Google Maps - Earth and Map Views to locate the island of Ilha do Cardoso. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the island. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the island (to: -25.064294, -47.904413). Input coordinates, coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), linear extent (17250.0 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).
