  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Sand Lake in Polk County, Wisconsin. Used Google Maps – Earth and Map Views to locate Sand Lake. Used the Google Maps – What's Here Tool to approximate the geographic center of the lake, using visual evidence to approximate, and selecting coordinates on the nearest shore point (collection assumed to be terrestrial). Used the Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent of the lake by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the lake. Input coordinates, coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), extent of named place (790.21 m), and measurement error (10 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Bounded Area).
