Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Unable to find the precise location of "Rio Caraipé." Assumed "road serving fazendas" is road BR-422, in accordance with other locality descriptions. Georeferenced to 60 km. along BR-422 (Tucuruí-Novo Repartimento road) in município Tucuruí. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the beginning of road BR-422, where Av. Raimundo Veridiano Cardoso turns into BR-422 at the approximate geographic center of the city of Tucuruí. Starting at this location (beginning of road BR-422), used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure approximately 60 km. (59.9999 km.) south along this road toward Novo Repartimento. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates at this offset along BR-422. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) again to measure the approximate linear extent of the city of Tucuruí (the starting location). Input coordinates, linear extent (12326.9 m.), measurement error (.1 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.)
