• Georeferencing Method

  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the city of Cabo Frio in Mun. Cabo Frio, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; taking into account the added uncertainty of the word "vicinity" stated in the locality description. Used Google Maps - Map and Earth Views to locate Cabo Frio. Used the Google Maps – What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the city (extending the city limits to include portions excluded by Google Maps based on the location of the Cabo Frio airport (Aeroporto Internacional de Cabo Frio) and other entities located in Cabo Frio but not included in the bounds of the city, see: http://wikimapia.org/#lang=en&lat=-22.890000&lon=-42.040000&z=13&m=b&show=/29849852/pt/Salinas-da-C-N-A-&search=cabo%20frio%20rio%20de%20janeiro, accessed: 8/25/2015). Used the Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of Cabo Frio (at: -22.930044, -42.092845). Because the center of the nearest named place of appropriate locality type, Armação dos Búzios, is farther from the center of Cabo Frio then the linear extent of Cabo Frio itself, followed Case A of Near a Named Place of the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide. Used the Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool again to approximate the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic center of Armação dos Búzios, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), linear extent (8880.0 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Near a Named Place).
