  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the unnamed road which connects the city of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro (synonymous with Tapuruquara) and the Tapuruquara Airport in Mun. Santa Isabel do Rio Negro, Amazonas. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the unnamed road which connects the city of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro to the airport. Used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line between the start of this road (where it branches from the city of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro) to the location where the road meets the airport, then halved this distance to approximate the location of the midpoint of the road. Measured to approximately this halved distance from the start of this road toward the center; used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates along the road. Input coordinates, linear extent (2009.13 m), and measurement error (.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: River, stream, road, path).
