    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to find the precise location of "estrada para o treze;" georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the mountain range of Serra dos Carajás in Parauapebas, Pará. Using Google Maps - Terrain and Satellite View, located the mountainous region of Serra dos Carajás. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the mountain range (using visual evidence). Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find the approximate linear extent of Serra dos Carajás by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the mountain range, where the mountainous area extends to almost meet Rio Xingu. Input coordinates, linear extent (221157.0 m.), and measurement error (1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
