  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to 885.5 km. along Cuiabá-Santarém road (BR-163). Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located road BR-163 at the approximate geographic center of the city of Cuiabá, Mato Grosso. Beginning at this location, used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure approximately 885.5 km. (885.50073 km.) along BR-163 toward Santarém, Pará. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) again to find linear extent of Cuiabá by measuring from the approximate geographic center to the farthest extent of the city. Input coordinates, linear extent (24263.1 m.), measurement error (.1 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
