  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the region of São Luis in Mun. Guajará-Mirim, Rondônia. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the region of São Luis, along Rio Pacaás Novos. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the region. Because the area does not have defined spatial boundaries, used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the nearest named place on the same side of Rio Pacaás Novos, Seringal Paraté (located on GeoNames.org: http://www.geonames.org/maps/google_-11.198_-64.133.html), then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (7093.6 m), and measurement error (0.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
