Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to 204 km along Manaus - Itacoatiara Highway in Amazonas, Brazil. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the road connecting Manaus to Itacoatiara, AM-010. Beginning at the start of this road in the city of Manaus, used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure approximately 204 km (204.0013 km) along the road toward Itacoatiara. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the offset coordinates along the road. Used the Distance 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
