  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to Geonames.org for location information for Porto Novo (http://www.geonames.org/maps/google_-2.623_-54.978.html, accessed: 11/13/2014). Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the road which connects Porto Novo and Belterra in Mun. Belterra, Pará. Used the reference map and Google Maps - Earth View to find the road which connects Porto Novo to Belterra, assumed to be "Estrada Para Porto Novo." Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to measure a straight line between the start of this road in Belterra (intersection of Estr. Para Porto Novo and Vila Nova) and the end of this road (at the area of Porto Novo), then halved this distance to find the midpoint of the line. Chose a point along Estr. Para Porto Novo nearest to the midpoint of the line; used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic midpoint of the road. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of this road. Input coordinates, linear extent (2450.0 m), and measurement error (2.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
