  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to find the precise location of the road mentioned in the locality description; instead, georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Colonia Fernando Costa in Mun. Mucajai, Roraima. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located Colonia Fernando Costa along Rio Mucajaí. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of Colonia Fernando Costa. Because Colonia Fernando Costa does not have defined spatial boundaries on Google Maps, used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the nearest named place, Mucajai, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (5534.79 m), and measurement error (.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
