  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the most developed area of the Fazenda Sao Rafael, in Mun. Una, Bahia. Using a fine-scale paper map of the area (Superintendência do Desenvolvimento do Nordeste. "Camacá" [Map]. Mapas da Região Nordeste do Brasil – 1:100,000. Convênio SUDENE – Governo do Estado da Bahia. SUDENE, Recife, PE, Brasil. 1977) found the location of the Fazenda Sao Rafael, and noted its position relative to prominent nearby terrain features (alongside a dam near a bend in the "Ribeirão da Alaiança" [now Rio Una]). Using Google Maps - Satellite view, found the location of the Fazenda Sao Rafael referencing the terrain features seen on the paper map. Because two separate clusters of buildings could possibly constitute the seat/headquarters of the Fazenda, used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line between the two building clusters, and then divided that distance by half to approximate the midpoint. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find coordinates for midpoint. Because the Fazenda São Rafael does not have defined spatial boundaries, used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) again, to approximate linear extent by measuring to the nearest named Fazenda, Fazenda Tabocal (found using identical methodology referencing the same paper map: -15.2075859 -39.25809860), then halving this extent. Input coordinates, linear extent (828.715 m), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
