Georeferencing Method
Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to locate Cidade da Pedras; georeferenced to the geographic center of Porto Grande, Amapá. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located Porto Grande. Approximated the geographic center of Porto Grande, then used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates. Because the spatial boundaries of Porto Grande are undefined, used measurement tool (Google Maps) to measure the total extent from the geographic center of Porto Grande to the geographic center of the nearest named place, Ferreira Gomes. Halved this distance to approximate the linear extent of Porto Grande. Input coordinates, linear extent (15246.55 m.), and measurement error (.01 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferncing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Undefined Area).
