  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Maroa is both a city (county seat) and county in Amazonas, Venezuela. This collection possibly occurred prior to Maroa being established as its own county (description states county as Casiquiare). Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the city of Maroa. Used Google Maps - Earth View to locate the city of Maroa. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the city of Maroa. Because the city of Maroa does not have defined spatial boundaries on Google Maps, used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to approximate the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the nearest named place, Guzmán Blanco, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (4045.0 m), and measurement error (10 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
