  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the city of Manaus, Amazonas, taking into account the added uncertainty of the word "near" in the locality description. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the city of Manaus. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the urban area of Manaus. Because the geographic center of the nearest named place to Manaus, Iranduba, is a shorter distance than the linear extent of Manaus itself, followed "Case B" of Named Place: Near a Named Place of the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide. Used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates of the geographic center of Manaus to the farthest extent of Mun. Manaus to ensure that the linear extent encompasses the entire area considered to be "Manaus." Because Mun. Manaus has defined spatial boundaries on Google Maps, used the linear extent as the uncertainty radius.
