Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Using Google Maps, located neighborhood Ponta Negra in Manaus, Amazonas. Located land area of Ponta Negra adjacent to Rio Negro; georeferenced to the geographic center of the shoreline of Ponta Negra adjacent to the river. Used measurement tool to measure the total extent of the shoreline, then halved that distance to approximate the geographic center. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates. Used measurement tool (Google Maps) again to find linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the shoreline adjacent to Rio Negro. Used linear extent as uncertainty radius.)
