  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Rio Solimões does not run nearby city of Careiro but rather by the city of Careiro da Várzea, which is very nearby Careiro. Georeferenced to 1 km. south of the geographic center of the city of Careiro da Várzea in município Careiro da Várzea, Amazonas. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the city of Careiro da Várzea along Rio Solimões. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the city. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the município (to ensure that the uncertainty radius encompasses the entire area considered to be Careiro da Várzea). To find 1 km. south offset: input coordinates, linear extent (70983.9 m.), measurement error (.1 m.), offset direction (S), offset distance (1000 m.), and distance precision (100 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset at a heading).
