  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to locate "camp" mentioned in locality description. Georeferenced to the approximated geographic center of Serra do Navio. Using Google Maps, located Serra do Navio, Amapá. Approximated the geographic center of the city. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates. Because boundaries are not defined, used measurement tool (Google Maps) to measure the distance to the center of the nearest named place, Teresinha. Halved this distance to find linear extent. Input coordinates, linear extent (4737.125 m.), and measurement error (.001 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
