Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Using Google Maps, located road Manaus-Porto Velho (BR-319) between Rio Tupana and Rio Castanho. Used measurement tool to measure a straight line between the junction of BR-319 and Rio Tupana and the juncton of BR-319 and Rio Castanho. Halved this distance to approximate the midpoint along the road. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the midpoint. Input coordinates, linear extent (the distance from the chosen midpoint on the road to the farthest junction - 31778.4 m.), and measurement error (.1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Referencing Guide, Named Place: River, stream, road, path).)
Coordinate Uncertainty(m): 31780.1
Geodetic Datum: WGS84
Coordinates: (-4.00674, -60.5813)
