Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to the Brokopondo reservoir area between the cities of Afobaka (also spelled: Affobakka) and Brownsweg in Brokopondo, Suriname. Used Google Maps - Earth View to locate the Brokopondo reservoir and the cities of Brownsweg and Affobakka. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to measure a straight line between the approximate geographic centers of Affobakka and Brownsweg, then halved this distance to find the midpoint of the line. Chose a point along the shoreline of the reservoir area nearest to the midpoint of the line (collection assumed to be terrestrial); used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool again to find the approximate linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farther of the cities. Input coordinates, linear extent (9780.0 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Between Two Places and River, stream, road, path).)
Coordinate Uncertainty(m): 9786.57
