  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to other locality descriptions for the precise location of Pacanari. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the road which leads from Monte Dourado to the area of Pacanari in Mun. Almeirim, Pará. Used the Google Maps - Earth View to find the unnamed road which leads from Monte Dourado to the area of Pacanari. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to measure a straight line between the area of this road nearby Pacanari (nearby 00º 40'S 52º35'W, in accordance with other locality descriptions) and the location where this road intersects with the road which leads to plateau of Monte Dourado and the road which leads to the city of Monte Dourado, then halved this distance to find the midpoint of this line. Chose a point along this segment of road nearest to the midpoint of this line; used Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic midpoint of this segment of road. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool again to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of this segment of road. Input coordinates, linear extent (12390.0 m), and measurement error (2.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
