  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the place called Mae Catira, found near the summit Pico do Sete, within the mountain range Serra da Graciosa, in Mun. Quatro Barras, Parana. Using an image of a fine-scale topographic map of the area (http://altamontanha.com/Aventura/3016/mae-catira--farinha-seca) located the place called Mãe Catira and translated that position to Google Maps – Terrain View by comparing the contour lines which are visible on both sources. Since no elevation is provided in this site record, used Google Maps – What's Here tool to find coordinates for the point closest to where the words "Mae Catira" appear on the topographic map. Using Google Maps – Measure Distance tool, estimated linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the base of the nearest trail head that leads directly up to Mae Catira (-25.336131, -48.909410), which is also visible on the topographic map. Input linear extent (1678.5 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).
