Georeferencing Method
Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the intersection of Igapó Açú and Manaus-Porto Velho road (BR-319). Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the intersection of Igapó Açú and BR-319 in Amazonas. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates immediately adjacent to the junction, on land. Used the measurement tool (Google Maps) to measure the total extent of the junction of Igapó Açú and BR-319 (linear extent). Input coordinates, linear extent (258.301 m.), and measurement error (.001 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Junction, Intersection, Crossing).
