Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to the approximated geographic center of the flooded region south of and due to the Tucuruí Dam (Hidrelétrica de Tucuruí) in Tucuruí, Pará. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the Tucuruí Dam along Rio Tocantins. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line starting at the geographic center of the Dam to the farthest extent of the flooded area south of the Dam, then halved this distance to approximate the location of the geographic center of the flooded region. Much of the flooded area is composed of inundated land and small islands. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of this region, on the western coast of Rio Tocantins. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the flooded region, 59112.1 m.), and measurement error (.1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius. Coordinates are nearby the city of Novo Repartimento.)
