Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to Rio Carangola, Carangola, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Using Google Maps located the river that passes through Carangola municipality. Using Geonames - Satellite View - to find the municipality level of Carangola. Used Google Maps - Satellite View, Distance Measurement Tool and What's Here Tool, to measure a straight line beginning where the river enter the municipality of Carangola (-20.788565, -41.995440) to the part where the river leaves the municipality (-20.650798, -42.119465), then halved this distance to approximate the location of the geographic midpoint (-20.721181, -42.038022 coordinates to adjacent shore, closest to the midpoint of the straight line.
