Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to the approximate geographic midpoint of the road which leads north northwest from the city of Jaci Paraná to Rio Madeira in Rondônia, Brazil. Used Google Maps – Earth and Map Views to locate the road which leads north northwest from the city of Jaci Paraná, R. Ilário Maia. Used the Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool to measure a straight line between the beginning and end of this road (from -9.253619, -64.406183 to -9.199060, -64.445224), then halved this distance to find the midpoint of the line. Chose a point along R. Ilário Maia nearest to the midpoint of the line; used the Google Maps – What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximated geographic midpoint of the road. Used the Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool again to find the linear extent of the road by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the road. Input coordinates, coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), linear extent (3750 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: River, stream, road, path).)
