Georeferencing Method

Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the place at 1200m altitude closest to the geographic center of Mount Forno Grande, in Mun. Castelo, Espírito Santo. Using Geonames.org, located the mountain called Forno Grande, then verified its legitimacy by entering "Pico Forno Grande, Espírito Santo, Brazil" into Google Maps - Text Search. Using Google Maps - Terrain View, found the contour line representing 1200m and traced it around Mount Forno Grande. Using Google Maps - What's Here tool, found coordinates (final) for the place at 1200m altitude closest to the geographic center of Mount Forno Grande (also near a trail leading over the mountain). Used Google Maps - Measure Distance tool to estimate linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest distant place on the mountain at 1200m altitude (-20.544870, -41.114597). Input linear extent (5828.0 m), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the Uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Defined area).
