    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the city of Cupixi in Amapa, Brazil. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the city of Cupixi, along Rio Cupixi. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the city. Because Cupixi 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 city, Mongubas, and halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (6169.05 m), and measurement error (.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
