  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to between São João Del Rei and Piedade, Minas Gerais, Brasil. Using Google Maps - Map View, located the starting point - city of São João Del Rei. And using Geonames find the city of Piedade do Rio Grande that is also known as just Piedade, used this city as the ending point. Using What's Here Tool determinated the coordinates to the geographic centers of both cities Sao Joao Del Rei (-21.127730, -44.245297) and Piedade do Rio Grande (-21.468387, -44.194039). Used Distance Measurement Tool - Google Maps - to measure a straight line between the centers of São João Del Rei and Piedade do Rio Grande. Then halved this distance to approximate the location of the geographic midpoint (-21.297509, -44.220006). Used Distance Measurement Tool to find the linear extent (half distance between the centers of both named places 19.05km). Input: coordinates (-21.297509, -44.220006), linear extent (19.05km), measurement error (0.01km), into MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (19062m). According to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Between two places. [GeoNames accessed at 6/19/2015 http://www.geonames.org/maps/google_-21.469_-44.196.html]
