  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Morro Bolo de Milho is synonymous with Monte de Milho. Referred to Wikiloc.com (http://pt.wikiloc.com/wikiloc/view.do?id=5312014, accessed 7/29/2015), Wikimapia.com (http://wikimapia.org/#lang=en&lat=-22.389325&lon=-43.219314&z=15&m=b&show=/30239441/pt/Monte-de-Milho-(1638-m)&search=monte%20de%20milho, accessed 7/29/2015), and Destinopetropolis.com (http://destinopetropolis.com.br/5748_monte-de-milho, accessed 7/29/2015) for locality information for Monte de Milho. Georeferenced to an elevation of 800 meters nearest to the approximate geographic center of Monte de Milho in Araras, Petrópolis, Rio de Janeiro. Used the reference materials and Google Maps - Terrain and Earth Views to locate Monte de Miho. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of elevation 800 m of the mountain nearest to the approximate geographic center (contour lines provided by Google Maps - Terrain View). Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the 700 m elevation contour of what may be considered Monte de Milho (at: -22.371473, -43.195070; using visual evidence). Input coordinate source (locality description), coordinates, datum (WGS84), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), extent of named place (5600 m), and measurement error (10 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Bounded Area)
