  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Using Google Maps, located Rio Urubu near Manaus, Amazonas. Used the measurement tool to measure a straight line between the two points of the river that are most removed from each other within the administrative boundaries specified in the locality description - from the start of this river (where it branches off of Lagoa Canaçari) to the end (almost directly north of city of Manaus). Halved this distance to approximate the geographic center of the river. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of this location. Input coordinates, linear extent (the distance from the chosen point on the river to the farthest point on the feature that is within the administrative boundaries specified in the locality description - 134262 m.), and measurement error (1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to calculate the uncertainty radius.
