  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the city of Paraty Mirim in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Used the Google Maps - Earth View to locate Paraty Mirim. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the village (using visual evidence to approximate). Because of the difficulty in determining the spatial extent of Paraty Mirim, used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic center of the nearest named place, the city of Paraty (at: -23.215981, -44.724364), then halving this distance. Input coordinates, coordinate source (linear extent), coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), linear extent (4575.0 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Undefined Area).
