Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Referred to INPA website (http://www.inpa.gov.br/reservas/reservas2.php) for more information about Reserva Biológica INPA. The biological reserve is located at approximately 60 km. along BR-174 (Manaus - Boa Vista) and the reserve has an area of 900 hectares. Unable to pinpoint exact geographic center of the reserve; georeferenced to km. 40 along Manaus-Caracarai road (according to label). road Manaus-Caracaraí is synonymous with road Manaus-Boa Vista (BR-174). Using Google Maps, located the road connecting Manaus to Caracaraí, BR-174. Beginning at the start of this road in Manaus, used the measurement tool to measure approximately 44 km. (44.0008 km.) along the road toward Caracaraí. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates. Used measurement tool again (Google Maps) to measure the linear extent of Manaus. Input coordinates, linear extent (14317.95 m.), measurement error (.01 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferncing Calculator to calculate the uncertainty radius.)
Coordinate Uncertainty(m): 14369.5
Geodetic Datum: WGS84
Coordinates: (-2.59279, -60.0348)
