Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Unable to find the precise location along the road to georeference to, since starting location not specified and direction of offset not provided. Georeferenced to the geographic midpoint of PA-275 in the mining area of Serra Norte Carajás, Parauapebas. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located road PA-275, which connects the city of Parauapebas to the mining area of Carajás. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line between where PA-275 leads to Serra dos Carajás (at gatehouse/toll booth on road PA-275, directly before PA-275 crosses Rio Parauapebas) to the end of PA-275 (at Alojamento Igarapé Bahia mining area), then halved this distance to approximate the location of the geographic midpoint of the road. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the midpoint. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of PA-275, 36793.3 m.), and measurement error (.1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.)
