  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Interpreted this locality description as: "Road from Ubaitaba to Ponta do Mutá; at the junction of the road to Marau". Because two major roads which connect to the city of Maraú intersect with the road from Ubaitaba to Ponta do Mutá (BR-30) in two different places, georeferenced to a point along BR-30 closest to the approximate geographic midpoint between these two intersections with roads that connect to the city of Maraú, in Mun. Maraú, Bahia. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the road connecting Ubaitaba to Ponta do Mutá (BR-30), and the two points where it intersects with roads which lead directly to the town of Maraú. Using Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps), measured a straight line from the center of one of the two intersections (-14.1360008 -38.9978331) to the center of the other intersection (-14.1097606 -38.9827994), then halved this distance to approximate the location of the geographic midpoint. Using Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs, found coordinates for the point along BR-30 closest to this midpoint. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of either of the two intersections, 1715.25 m), and measurement error (0.0005 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named place: Junction, Intersection, Crossing; and More than one possibility).
