  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to pinpoint locality along east bank of Rio Urubu; georeferenced to km. 202 along Manaus-Itacoatiara road. Using Google Maps, located the road connecting Manaus to Itacoatiara, AM-010. Beginning at the start of this road in Manaus, used the measurement tool to measure approximately 202 km. (202.0008 km.) along the road toward Itacoatiara. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates. Used measurement tool again (Google Maps) to measure the linear extent of Manaus. Input coordinates, linear extent (14317.95 m.), measurement error (.01 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferncing Calculator to calculate the uncertainty radius.
