  • Georeferencing Method

    BioGeomancer, Guide to Best Practices for Georefer. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Parque Estadual de Vila Velha, in Ponta Grossa, Paraná, taking into account the added uncertainty of the word "vicinity" stated in the locality description. Used Google Maps – Earth and Map Views to find Parque Estadual de Vila Velha. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates for the approximate geographic center of the park (-25.234872, -50.012929). Used the Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected geographic center to the farthest extent of the feature (-25.235301, -50.060998). Proceeded according to the Biogeomancer Guide to Best Practices for Georeferencing: doubled the linear extent of the feature (200%). Input: coordinates (-25.234872, -50.012929), coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), linear extent (9.64 km), and measurement error (0.01 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Biogeomancer Guide for Best Practices for Georeferencing, Near a Feature).
