Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to the point alongside the road which connects the city of Ilhéus to the city of Una, BA-001, closest to the approximate geographic midpoint of this section of road between these two cities, in Mun. Una, Bahia. Using Google Maps (Satellite View), located BA-001. Beginning at the place where BA-001 comes closest to the approximate geographic center of the city of Ilhéus (-14.7914908 -39.0330747), used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line to the place where BA-001 comes closest to the approximate geographic center of the city of Una (-15.2942082 -39.0722698), then halved this distance to approximate the location of the midpoint. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find coordinates for the point along BA-001 closest to this midpoint. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic center of the most distant of the two cities mentioned (Una), 28,480.6 m), and measurement error (0.1 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the Uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: River, Stream, Road, Path & Named Place: Between two Places).)
