Georeferencing Process • Find the most specific named place. • Determine the coordinates and datumof the named place using orthogonal offsets (measured on map, converted to real-world distances) from known coordinates. • Determine the extent of the named place. • Determine map measurement error. • Determine Locality Type.
Georeferencing Process • If Locality Type is “Distance only”, “Named place only”, or “Distance along path”…- enter the coordinates of the named place or click on the “Promote” button to copy the coordinates from your prior calculation.- select “Error only” Calculation Type- select the Locality Type- set all parameters on the Calculator- click on the “Calculate” button.
Georeferencing Process • If Locality Type is “Distance at a heading” or “Distance along orthogonal directions”…- enter the coordinates of the named place or click on the “Promote” button to copy the coordinates from your prior calculation.- select “Coordinates and error” Calculation Type- select the Locality Type- set all parameters on the Calculator- click on the “Calculate” button.
