  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to approximately 1 km along the road which connects the city of Carananduba and the city of Mosqueiro, beginning nearby the geographic center of Praia de São Francisco in Ilha do Mosqueiro, Pará. Referred to Wikimapia.org for location information for Praia São Francisco (http://wikimapia.org/8020443/pt/Praia-de-São-Francisco, accessed: 11/26/2014). Used the reference map, Google Maps - Earth View, and Bing Maps to locate Praia de São Francisco and the road which connects the cities of Carananduba and Mosqueiro (note: this road is named Av. 16 do Novembro on Google Maps and named Av. Beira-Mar on Bing Maps). Beginning at the location where this road meets an access road to the approximate geographic center of Praia São Francisco (on Bing Maps: intersection of Av. Beira-Mar and Estrada São Francisco, on Google Maps: intersection of Av. 16 do Novembro and unnamed road), used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to measure approximately 1 km (1.0 km) toward the city of Mosqueiro. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the offset along the road. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool again to find the linear extent of the starting location, in this case Praia de São Francisco, by measuring from the approximate geographic center of the beach to the nearest named beach, Praia do Ariramba, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (.720 km), measurement error (.0025 km), and distance precision (1 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainly radius.
