Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Referred to EFMM Estrada de Ferro Madeira-Mamoré website for a map of the Madeira-Mamoré Railway route (http://vfco.brazilia.jor.br/ferrovias/mapas/1965-Estrada-de-Ferro-Madeira-Mamore.shtml, accessed 8/4/2014). This railway is no longer in use. Because the locality description does not specify if collection made at the Porto Velho station or along the railroad within the city limits; georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the Porto Velho station along the Madeira-Mamoré railway in Rondônia, Brazil, ensuring that the uncertainty radius encompassed the entire area considered to be within reaches of Porto Velho. Using the reference material, Google Earth, and Google Maps - Satellite View, located the antiquated railway station. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the Porto Velho station. Used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate location of the nearest named station, Candelaria, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (1386.845 m), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.)
Coordinate Uncertainty(m): 1388.91
Geodetic Datum: WGS84
Coordinates: (-8.76654, -63.9092)
