Georeferencing Method

Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the geographic center of Rio Solimões within Santo Antônio do Içá. Using Google Maps, located Rio Solimões within Santo Antônio do Içá in Amazonas, BR. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line between the beginning of Rio Solimões in Santo Antônio do Içá to the farthest extent of the river within Santo Antônio do Içá; halved this extent to approximate the location of the midpoint of the river. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the midpoint of the river, along the adjacent shore (note: coordinates happen to be very nearby the geographic center of the city). Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of Rio Solimões within Santo Antônio do Içá, 21994.3 m.), and measurement error (.1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
