  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to find the precise location of "Bela Vista" along Rio Mocoões; instead, georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Rio Mocoões in Mun. Anajás, Ilha de Marajó. Using Google Earth and Google Maps - Satellite View, located Rio Mocoões. Used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line beginning at the mouth of the river (confluence of Rio Mocoões and Rio Anajás) to the approximate source of the river (where two unnamed rivers join to form Rio Mocoões), then halved this distance to approximate the location of the midpoint of the river. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the midpoint, on the adjacent shore (collection assumed to be terrestrial). Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the river, .1 m), and measurement error (30485.3 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
