Map:

Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to 14 km. along road ZF-2. Referred to Suframa website (http://www.suframa.gov.br/mapa4.swf), which provided a map showing location of ZF-2. Road ZF-2 meets BR-174 at approximately 50 km. from Manaus toward Caracarai. Starting at the junction with BR-174, measured approximately 14 km. (14.0003 km.) west along ZF-2. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find coordinates. Used measurement tool again (Google Maps) to measure the linear extent of Manaus. Input coordinates, linear extent (14317.95 m.), measurement error (.01 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferncing Calculator to calculate the uncertainty radius.)
Coordinate Uncertainty(m): 14369.5
