  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Difficult to discern the location of the east bank of Rio Purus because of the meandering of the river and difficult to discern which direction the offset of "above" Lábrea is; instead georeferenced to the geographic center of the city of Lábrea, with the uncertainty radius reflecting the 5 km. offset. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the city of Lábrea in Lábrea (município), Pará. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the geographic center of the city. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of município Lábrea. Input coordinates, linear extent (380385.0 m.), and measurement error (1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset only, no direction).
