• Georeferencing Method

  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to 10km W along the road 267, which connects city Caxambu to city Cambuguira, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the road 267. Beginning at where the road leaves the city of Caxambu (-21.967376, -44.935373). Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure 10km along the road 267 toward city Cambuguira. Used What's Here Tool (Google Mps) to find the coordinates of the offset (-21.940338, -45.016647) and used Terrain View (Google Maps) to confirm the presence of 910m close to my select point. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) again to find the linear extent of the starting location of the offset, the city of Caxambu, by measuring from the approximate select center (-21.980755, -44.930677) until the farthest extent of the city (-22.007621, -44.922370). Input: coordinates (-21.967376, -44.935373), measurement error (0.01km), distance precision (1km), extent (3.1km) into MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (3612m). According to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide: Offset, offset along a path.
