• Georeferencing Method

  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the city of Santa Teresa, Espírito Santo; taking into account the added uncertainty of the word "arredores" (surroundings) stated in the locality description. Used Google Maps - Earth and Map Views to locate the city of Santa Teresa. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the city. Because the center of the nearest named place of similar size to the city of Santa Teresa, Santa Maria de Jetibá, is farther from the center of Santa Teresa than the linear extent of Santa Teresa itself, proceeded according to Case A of the Near a Named Place method of the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to approximate the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic center of the city of Santa Maria de Jetibá, (at: -20.020701, -40.738807); then halving this distance. Input coordinates, coordinate source (locality description), coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), linear extent (8675 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Near a Named Place).
