    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographical center of Lake Itasca, Clearwater County, Minnesota. Used Google Maps – Earth/Map Views to locate the headwaters of the Mississippi River (Lake Itasca), Clearwater County, Minnesota. Used Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent (3390 m) by measuring from selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the lake.
