  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Because the offset does not have direction specified, georeferenced to approximate geographic center of Ponte dos Macuxis (bridge) in Mun. Boa Vista, Roraima, accounting for the added uncertainty of the 20 km offset stated in the locality description. Used the Google Maps - Earth View to locate the bridge Ponte dos Macuxis, which connects Município Boa Vista and Município Cantá (over Rio Branco). Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the bridge. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent of the bridge by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the bridge. Input coordinates, linear extent (0.58193 km), measurement error (.0025 km), offset distance (20 km), and distance precision (10 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainly radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset only, no direction).
