  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. After measuring all the specified distances along the road mentioned (Itapebi/Belmonte; aka. BA-275) from the separate specified starting locations (60 km & 68 km from Itapebi, and 18 km and 24 km from Barrolândia), some overlap between the two distance ranges was found; therefore the general directions we're assumed to be accurate, although imprecise. To encapsulate every possible position along the road following either distance range, georeferenced to the approximate midpoint of the section of Rodovia Itapebi/Belmonte (BA-275) measured from the farthest east descriptor of the locality (18 km east of Barrolândia) to the farthest west descriptor (68 km from Itapebi), in Mun. Belmonte, Bahia. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the city of Itapebi, the city of Belmonte, and the road which connects them, BA-275, along with the town of Barrolândia. Using Distance Measurement Tool (Google maps), found the location of the farthest east point (-16.0287972 -39.1351166): 18 km east along the road from the center of the town of Barrolândia, and the farthest west point (-16.0232495 -39.0399519): 68 km east along the road from the center of the city of Itapebi. Beginning at the first point, used Distance Measurement Tool (Google maps) again to measure a straight line to the second point, then halved that distance to approximate the location of the geographic midpoint. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find coordinates for the point along BA-275 closest to this midpoint. Used Distance Measurement Tool one last time to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the further of the two endpoints of this chosen section of road. Input coordinates, linear extent (5.79225 km), measurement error (0.0005 km), and distance precision (1 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset along a path).
