  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to Geographical Names website: "São José das Pedras: Brazil;" source: The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, Bethesda, MD, USA (http://www.geographic.org/geographic_names/name.php?uni=443849&fid=764&c=brazil) to find location of São José das Pedras. The locality is very nearby Rio Urubu. Using Google Maps, located approximate area os São José das Pedras, according to the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. Location seems to be between two unmarked roads off of AM-010, one which provides access to Rio Urubu and another that doesn't quite reach Rio Urubu. Georeferenced to the approximate location provided by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates. Used measurement tool (Google Maps) to measure extent from coordinates to geographic center of nearest named place, Itacoatiara. Input coordinates, linear extent (29969.75 m.), and measurement error (.01 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Undefined Area).
