  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Could not locate the place called: "Sítio do Bósa" in this vicinity. Inferred from additional descriptors of the locality found in an analogous site (NY Site IRN: 424735, "Sítio do Bósa, arredores da cidade") that it is located somewhere in the areas surrounding the city of Santa Teresa. Therefore, georeferenced to "Near" the city of Santa Teresa, in Mun. Santa Teresa, Espírito Santo. Using Google Maps - Text Search and Map View, located and visualized the city of Santa Teresa. Using Google Maps - What's Here tool, found coordinates (final) for the closest point within a forested area to the approximate geographic center of the city of Santa Teresa. Using Google Maps - Measure Distance tool, estimated linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates near the center the city of Santa Teresa to the farthest extent of Santa Teresa (-19.946609, -40.572913), then multiplied that distance by 2 (200%). Input linear extent (4555.0 m), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Best Practices Guide, Named Place: Near a named place).
