• Georeferencing Method

  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to 3 km along the road departing from the town of Maraú to the south, "Avenida Ubaitaba Ou Avenida Aroaldo Lemos Vivas", which soon afterwards merges with the main route "BR-30", in Mun. Maraú, Bahia. Beginning at the point along "Avenida Ubaitaba Ou Avenida Aroaldo Lemos Vivas" closest to the approximate geographic center of the town of Maraú (-14.1048831 -39.0146828), used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure approximately 3 km (3.00000 km) along "Avenida Ubaitaba Ou Avenida Aroaldo Lemos Vivas" south towards BR-30. Using Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs, found coordinates for the offset. Using Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) again, found the linear extent of the starting location of the offset, the town of Maraú, by measuring from the selected coordinates near the center of town to the farthest extent of the town. Input coordinates, linear extent (0.7736014 km), measurement error (0.0005 km), and distance precision (1 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset along a path.
