  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to 12 km. along PA-263 (Tucuruí-Goianésia do Pará road) in município Breu Branco. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the beginning of road PA-263, across Rio Tocantins from the city of Tucuruí. Starting at this location (beginning of road at Rio Tocantins), used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure approximately 12 km. (12.0007 km.) east along this road toward Goianésia do Pará. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates at this offset along PA-263. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) again to measure the approximate linear extent of the city of Tucuruí (the starting location). Input coordinates, linear extent (12326.9 m.), measurement error (.1 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
