  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to 5 km east of the approximate geographic center of the city of Sena Madureira in Mun. Sena Madureira, Acre. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the city of Sena Madureira. Used Canadensys lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the geographic center of the city. Because the city does not have defined spatial boundaries on Google Maps, used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find the linear extent of the city of Sena Madureira by measuring from the selected coordinates to the nearest named city of comparable size, Manoel Urbano, then halving this distance (note: measured to nearest named city of comparable size because technically there are nearer named places, but these appear to be small rural villages which may be under the jurisdiction of the city of Sena Madureira). To find the 5 km east offset: input coordinates, linear extent (35.6319 km), offset distance (5 km), offset direction (E), measurement error (.005 km), and distance precision (1 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the offset coordinates and the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset at a heading).
