    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Serra das Piabas is synonymous with Morro das Piabas. Referred to Peakery.com (http://peakery.com/morro-das-piabas-brazil/, accessed 8/4/2015) for locality information for Morro das Piabas. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the southern slope of Morro das Piabas in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Used Google Maps - Terrain and Earth Views to locate Morro das Piabas. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the southern slope of Morro das Piabas (midpoint between the peak of Morro das Piabas and ground level). Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of what is considered to be the "southern" slope of Morro das Piabas (determined using visual evidence). Input coordinates, coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), extent of named place (888.45 m), and measurement error (10 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Bounded Area).
