  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to "Autobiobibliografia Manoel Rodrigues Ferreira" (2005) for information about the Brasilia-Acre highway, BR-29 (historical name). BR-29 has become divided up into different named highways across its span. The stretch of this highway between Rio Branco, Acre and Vilhena, Rondônia is now named BR-364 (http://www.ebooksbrasil.org/eLibris/biomanoel.html, accessed 8/7/2014). Locality description does not specify direction for the offset from the city of Porto Velho, georeferenced to the location of the road at the approximate geographic center of Porto Velho in Rondônia, Brazil. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located road BR-364 at the approximate geographic center of the city. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the location where BR-364 meets the approximate geographic center of the city, at the intersection of BR-364, BR-319, Av. Rio de Janeiro, and Av. Nações Unidas. Used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find the linear extent of the road within the city by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of BR-364 within the city limits. Input coordinates, linear extent (5.85266 km), offset distance (100 km), measurement error (.0005 km), and distance precision (100 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset only, no direction).
