Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Unable to find the precise location of the old road BR-364 ("BR Velha"); instead, georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the Usina Hidrelética de Samuel (UHE Samuel) along Rio Jamari in Porto Velho, Rondônia, ensuring that the uncertainty radius encompassed the entire area of the reservoir Represa de Samuel (since the present-day road BR-364 runs along the length of the Dam's reservoir area). Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the approximate geographic center of UHE Samuel. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the geographic center of the dam. Used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the reservoir surrounding the dam. Input coordinates, linear extent (43235.2 m), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Referencing Guide, Named Place: Defined Area).)
Coordinate Uncertainty(m): 43237.3
