  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Assumed the RADAM parcel to be SA.20-Z-B, in accordance with other locality descriptions. Referred to "Localização da Folha" (p. 15-16) of "Projeto RADAMBRASIL, Programa de Integração Nacional: Levantamento de Recursos Naturais" for location information for parcel SA.20-Z-B of the RADAMBRASIL project ("Projeto RADAMBRASIL, Programa de Integração Nacional: Levantamento de Recursos Naturais." 1978, Ministério das Minas e Energia, Departmento Nacional da Produção Mineral, Projeto RADAMBRASIL. Vol. 18, DNPM/Projeto RADAMBRASIL: Rio De Janeiro. http://library.wur.nl/isric/fulltext/isricu_i00006760_001.pdf; accessed: 10/16/2014). Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the parcel stated in the locality description, in accordance with the reference material. Used the reference material and Google Maps - Earth View to find the approximate location of SA.20-Z-B (Projeto RADAMBRASIL) parcel in Mun. Manaus, Amazonas. Located each corner of the square parcel marked on the reference map (latitude and longitude grid provided on reference map). Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to draw the approximate outline of the square parcel by connecting each corner of the square. From viewing the approximate parcel boundaries, located the approximate geographic center of the parcel; used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the parcel. Input coordinates, linear extent (101010.0 m), and measurement error (50 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Defined Area).
