    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Locality description states along road to Balbina Hydroelectric Dam project from Manaus-Caracarai Road (BR-174), along the Rio Uatumã. Located the river Rio Uatumã, which the Balbina Dam is built on. Unsure the location along the river to georeference; georeferenced to the geographic center of the Balbina Hydroelectric Dam. Using Google Maps, located the Balbina Hydroelectric Dam. Used the measurement tool to measure the total extent of the dam, then approximated the geographic center. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates. Used linear extent as uncertainty radius.
