Map:

Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to 10 km east of the approximate geographic center of the city of Portel in Mun. Portel, Pará. Used Google Maps - Earth View to find the approximate geographic center of the city of Portel. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the geographic center. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the city (using visual evidence). To find the offset, input coordinates (-1.94071, -50.816435), linear extent (3.16 km), offset distance (10 km), offset direction (E), measurement error (.0025 km), and distance precision (10 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the offset coordinates and the linear extent (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset at a heading).)
