  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to Suframa website (http://www.suframa.gov.br/mapa4.swf), which provided a map showing location of ZF-1. Road ZF-1 meets BR-174 at approximately 41 km. from Manaus toward Caracarai. Using Google Maps, located BR-174. Beginning at the start of this road in Manaus, used the measurement tool to measure to junction with ZF-1, at approximately 41 km. (41.3114 km.). Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find coordinates. Used measurement tool (Google Maps) to measure linear extent of Manaus. Input coordinates, linear extent (14317.95 m.), measurement error (.01 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferncing Calculator to calculate the uncertainty radius.
