  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Assumed site "logo acima de Anajás" (translated into English: just above Anajás) to be located directly across the river (north) from the city of Anajás. Georeferenced to the land directly across Rio Anajás from the geographic center of the city of Anajás. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the approximate geographic center of the city of Anajás in município Anajás, on Ilha de Marajó. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates directly across river Rio Anajás from the geographic center of Anajás. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of Rio Anajás within município Anajás (to include all area that may be considered Rio Anajás within Anajás). Input coordinates, linear extent (43944.0 m.), and measurement error (.1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
