  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to GeoNames.org for location information for the neighborhood of Rondônia (not to be confused with the state of Rondônia) in the city of Ji-Paraná, Rondônia (http://www.geonames.org/maps/google_-10.867_-61.95.html). Georeferenced to approximately 3 km along the road from Castanhal to Rondônia, BR-364, in Mun. Cacoal, Rondônia. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the road which connects the two localities, BR-364. Beginning at the geographic center of the junction of BR-364 and the unnamed road which leads to the region of Castanhal, used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure approximately 3 km (3.00005 km) toward Rondônia. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the offset, along the road. Used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) again to find the linear extent of the starting location, the junction of BR-364 and the unnamed road, by measuring from the starting coordinates to the farthest extent of the intersection. Input coordinates, linear extent (0.0141596 km), measurement error (0.0005 km), and distance measurement tool (1 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
