Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to the geographic center of Rio Maracaçumê in Maranhão, Brazil. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located Rio Maracaçumê. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line starting at the mouth of Rio Maracaçumê (where it branches off from the Atlantic Ocean) to the farthest extent of the river (approximated through the dense forest); halved this distance to approximate the location of the midpoint of Rio Maracaçumê. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates, on the adjacent shore. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the midpoint to the farthest extent of the river, 77997.7 m.), and measurement error (.1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: River, stream, road, path).)
Coordinate Uncertainty(m): 77999.4
