  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. the intersection of Manaus-Boa Vista road (BR-174) and Manaus- Itacoatiara road (AM-010) is where BR-174 begins in Manaus. 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 approximately 350 km. (350.00158 km.) along the road toward Caracaraí. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates. Used measurement tool again (Google Maps) to measure the linear extent of Manaus. Input coordinates, linear extent (14317.95 m.), measurement error (.01 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferncing Calculator to calculate the uncertainty radius.
