  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the location directly across Rio Negro from San Marcelino in Mun. São Gabriel da Cachoeira, Amazonas. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located San Marcelino along Rio Negro, which is in close proximity of the mouth of Rio Xié (confluence of Rio Negro and Rio Xié). Used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line directly across Rio Negro from the approximate geographic center of San Marcelino. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the location across from San Marcelino, on the east bank of the river. Because the area does not have defined spatial boundaries, used the Distance Measurement Tool again to measure a straight line between the selected coordinates and the mouth of Rio Xié. Input coordinates, linear extent (2621.82 m), and measurement error (.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
