    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Inferred "BR-106" in Santa Helena to be road "MA-106." Unable to locate "Fazenda Maracaçumé Agro Industrial;" georeferenced to MA-106 within Santa Helena. Using Google Maps, located MA-106 within Santa Helena. Used measurement tool to measure a straight line along the road within the administrative boundaries specified in locality description (within Santa Helena). Halved this distance and chose a point along the road closest to midpoint. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find coordinates. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the chosen midpoint to the farthest point on the feature that is within the administrative boundaries specified in the locality description - 32236.6 m.), and measurement error (.1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
