  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to approximate 8 km. north of the geographic center of the shore of the city of Filadélfia, Tocantins. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the geographic center of the city of Filadélfia, along the Rio Tocantins. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure approximately 8 km. (7.88225 km.) north of Filadélfia along Rio Tocantins. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates at this offset, along the adjacent western shore of the river. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) again to measure from the geographic center of the shore of Filadélfia to the approximate geographic center of the shore of the nearest named place (same side of the river), Babaçulândia, then halved this distance to approximate the linear extent of the shoreline of Filadélfia. Input coordinates, linear extent (17131.8 m.), measurement error (.1 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
