Georeferencing Method
Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the geographic center of Manaus-Caracaraí road. Using Google Maps, located the road connecting Manaus to Caracaraí, BR-174. Beginning at the start of this road in Manaus, used the measurement tool to measure a straight line between the two points on the feature that are most removed from each other within the administrative boundaries specified in the locality description (the start of this road in Manaus to where this road meets the center of Caracaraí). Halved this distance to approximate the geographic center of this road. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates. Input coordinates, linear extent (the distance from the chosen midpoint on the road to the farthest point on the road that is within the administrative boundaries specified by the locality description - 274614 m.), and measurement error (1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferncing Calculator to calculate the uncertainty radius.
