  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Benfica in Marituba, Brazil, since locality description states offset of 3 km. from Benfica without mention of direction. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located Benfica. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of Benfica. Because Benfica does not have defined spatial boundaries on Google Maps, used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the nearest named place, Santa Barbara do Para, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (3824.76 m.), measurement error (.01 m.), offset distance (3000 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset only, no direction).
