Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to 7 km north of the approximate geographic center of the village of Henrique in Amapa, which places coordinates along Rio Breu (in accordance with the locality description). Using Google Earth and Google Maps - Satellite View, located the approximate area of the village of Henrique (Google Earth shows Igarapé Henrique running through a populated area along BR-156, assumed this area to be the village of Henrique). Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of Henrique. Because Henrique does not have defined spatial boundaries on Google Maps, used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the nearest named place, approximate area of Vila Breu, then halving this distance. To find the 7 km offset, input coordinates (1.7652579, -50.8820629), linear extent (2.599175 km), offset distance (7 km), offset direction (N), measurement error (.0005 km), and distance precision (1 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the offset coordinates and the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Offset: Offset at a heading).)
