  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Interpreted this Georeference as: near the town/neighborhood of "Ajuda" (current name: Arraial da Ajuda), within the general vicinity the city of Porto Seguro, in Mun. Porto Seguro, Bahia. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, and a paper map of the area (Superintendência do Desenvolvimento do Nordeste. "Porto Seguro" [Map]. Mapas da Região Nordeste do Brasil – 1:100,000. Convênio SUDENE – Governo do Estado da Bahia. SUDENE, Recife, PE, Brasil. 1977) located "Ajuda". Using Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs, found coordinates for the approximate geographic center of "Ajuda" according to the boundaries shown on the paper map, which are more likely to accurately portray the center and span of the named place at the time of collection, in 1962. Because the boundaries of the area of "Ajuda" are poorly defined, and appear to have changed substantially since the date of collection, used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic center of the nearest named place, the city of Porto Seguro (-16.4458402 -39.0694857), also according to its boundaries shown on the paper map. Input coordinates, linear extent (4879.38 m), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Undefined area).
