<div id="ygrps-yiv-1311663284">since central african republic cf precedes chad td &<br/>
congo cg in english<br/>
this next tripoint is located in the river sangha<br/>
presumably at the thalweg<br/>
according to brownlie<br/>
just upstream from the village of bomassa congo<br/>

the tripoint may involve a flood zone &or other local<br/>
complication<br/>
& based on an inconsistent french colonial<br/>
administrative trijunction<br/>
it is situated at approx<br/>
n lat 2d 13m 20s<br/>
e long 16d 11m 30s<br/>
but just as with the previous tripoint <br/>
cfcmtd <br/>
this positioning is also based on administrative map<br/>
evidence only<br/>
since none of the 3 convergent boundaries was<br/>
demarcated here either<br/>
<br/>
nevertheless the attached tripoint stretching diagram<br/>
does at least endeavor to locate the above estimated<br/>
position<br/>
while acknowledging that both the google earth line<br/>
overlay position & the borderbase pushpin position are<br/>
about equally likely in this case<br/>
since we are all within a few seconds or a few hundred<br/>
feet of each others guesses here anyway<br/>
<br/>
in fact judging from the above encarta depiction at<br/>
tightest zoom level<br/>
google earth is looking better than borderbase or the<br/>
tripoint stretcher in this rare case<br/>
i mean<br/>
if you can trust encarta any more than any of us<br/>
others<br/>
<br/>
