  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the location where Cuiabá-Santarém road (BR-163) meets road to Porto Velho (BR-364), which is located at approximately 165 km. along Cuiabá-Santarém road. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located road Cuiabá-Santarém at the approximate geographic center of the city of Cuiabá, Mato Grosso. Beginning at this location, used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure approximately 165 km. (165.3672 km.) along Cuiabá-Santarém road to locate the intersection with road to Porto Velho (BR-364). Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates at the geographic center of the intersection. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find linear extent of the intersection by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the intersection. Input coordinates, linear extent (64.9614 m.), measurement error (.0001 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Junction, Intersection, Crossing).
