  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to find the precise location of "Fazenda Vale," instead, georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Rio Cristalino in Mun. Santana do Araguaia, Pará. Used the Google Maps - Earth View to location Rio Cristalino, a tributary of Rio Campo Alegre. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to measure a straight line between the approximate geographic center of the mouth of Rio Cristalino (confluence of Rio Cristalino and Rio Campo Alegre) and the headwaters of the river (approximated through the dense forest cover), then halved this distance to find the midpoint of the line. Chose a point along Rio Cristalino nearest to the midpoint of the line; used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic midpoint of the river. Used the Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the river. Input coordinates, linear extent (38890.0 m), and measurement error (25 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
