  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to "Traveling Luck" website (http://travelingluck.com/South%20America/Brazil/Amazonas/_3745072_Rio%20Branquinho.html) for location information for Rio Branquinho (synonymous with Rio Brancinho). Assumed "2 km. below" mouth of the river mean 2 km. south of mouth of the river; georeferenced to 2 km. south of the mouth of Rio Branquinho. Using Google Maps, located Rio Branquinho, located at the confluence of Rio Branquinho and Rio Cuieiras in Amazonas, BR. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the geographic center of the mouth of the river, along the north shore (adjacent land). Used distance measurement tool (Google Maps) to measure linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the meeting of the rivers. Input coordinates, linear extent (61.9089 m.), measurement error (.0001 m.), offset distance (2000 m.), offset direction (S), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the offset coordinates and uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset at a heading).
