  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to 33 km along Rio Branco-Porto Acre road, AC-010, in Mun. Rio Branco, Acre. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located Estrada Porto Acre, which leads from the city of Rio Branco to the city of Porto Acre. Beginning at the start of Estrada Porto Acre (intersection of Estrada Porto Acre (AC-010), Estrada Raimundo Irineu Serra, Av. Antonio da Rocha Viana, and Estrada Jarbas Passarinho) in the city of Rio Branco, used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure approximately 33 km (33.0003 km) along the road toward Porto Acre. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the offset along the road. Used the Distance Measurement Tool again to find the approximate linear extent of the starting location, the beginning of Estrada Porto Acre (AC-010), by measuring from the geographic center of the intersection to the farthest extent of the intersection. Input coordinates, linear extent (0.0807 km), measurement error (0.0005 km), and distance precision (1 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
