  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the midpoint of Rio Negro between the cities of Manaus and Santarém. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located Rio Negro between Manaus, AM and Santarém, PA in Brazil. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line beginning at the location where Rio Negro meets the tip of Manaus (approximate geographic center of the shore of Manaus) to where the river meets the geographic center of Santarém (along shore); halved this distance to approximate the location of the midpoint of the segment. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the midpoint, along the adjacent southern shore. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the segment, 296464 m.), and measurement error (1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
