Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to 156 km along the road which connects the cities of Manaus and Caracaí in Amazonas, Brazil. Using Google Maps, located the road connecting Manaus to Caracaraí, BR-174. Beginning at the start of this road in Manaus, used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure approximately 156 km (156.0074 km) along the road toward Caracaraí. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the offset along the road. Used the Measurement Tool again to measure the linear extent of the starting location, the city of Manaus. Input coordinates, linear extent (14317.95 m), measurement error (.01 m), and distance precision (100 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to calculate the uncertainty radius.)
Coordinate Uncertainty(m): 14369.5
