  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the nearest location on land at the mouth of Rio Santiago, a tributary of Rio Amazonas in Condorcanqui Province, Amazonas, Peru (nearby Amazonas-Loreto border). Used Google Maps – Earth View to locate the mouth of Rio Santiago, where the river flows into Rio Amazonas. Located approximate geographic center of the confluence of Rio Santiago and Rio Amazonas, used the Google Maps – What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the shore closest to this point (collection assumed to be terrestrial). Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the confluence of the rivers. Input coordinate source (locality description), coordinates, datum (WGS84), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), extent of named place (978.94 m), measurement error (10 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Mouth or headwaters of a river, confluence of waterways, trailhead).
