  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the geographic midpoint of Rio Tonantins between the cities of Vila Velha (synonymous with Tonantins Velha) and Tonantins. Referred to "Traveling Luck for Rio Tonantins, Amazonas, Brazil" from the Traveling Luck website for location information for Rio Tonantins (http://travelingluck.com/South+America/Brazil/Amazonas/_3661892_Rio+Tonantins.html). Using the reference map and Google Maps - Satellite View, located the stretch of Rio Tonantins between Vila Velha and Tonantins. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line between the river at the geographic center of the shoreline of Vila Velha (nearby the mouth of the river) to the geographic center of the shoreline of Tonantins, then halved this distance to approximate the location of the midpoint of the river. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the midpoint of Rio Tonantins between the cities. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of Rio Tonantins between the cities, 1676.36 m.), and measurement error (.01 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
