Georeferencing Method

Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the city of Caracaraí in Mun. Caracaraí, Roraima, ensuring that the uncertainty radius reflects the added uncertainty of the word "vicinity" in the locality description. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the city of Caracaraí on the western shore of Rio Branco. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the geographic center of the city. Because the center of the nearest named place, Iracema, is farther from the center of the named place than the extent of the named place itself, followed Case A of Named Place: Near a Named Place of the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide. Used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the geographic center of the nearest named place, Iracema, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (19576.9 m), and measurement error (.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Near a Named Place).
