    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to locate the near-dried out lake. Georeferenced to road to Praia das Concahs (R. Luis Carlos Wagner Peixoto). Using Google Maps, located the area around Praia das Conchas, Cabo Frio. Used measurement tool to measure total extent of the road to Praia das Conchas. Halved this extent to approximate the geographic center of the road. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find coordinates. Input coordinates, linear extent (halved total extent of road, 2170.65 m.), and measurement error (.01 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find uncertainty radius.
