  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the geographic center of road Estrada do Tarumã in Tarumã, Manaus. Using Google Maps, located Estrada do Tarumã (which becomes Av. Do Turismo). Used measurement tool to measure a straight line starting at the beginning of Estrada do Tarumã (at junction with Av. Torquato Tapajós) to the end of this road (at junction with Av. Cel. Teixeira), then halved this extent to approximate the location of the midpoint of Estrada do Tarumã. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the midpoint. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the road, 6651.91 m.), and measurement error (.01 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
