Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the river, Rio Una, in Mun. Una, Bahia. Using Google Maps Satellite and Map Views, located Rio Una, and the boundaries of the Municipality "Una". Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line beginning at the mouth of the river (-15.2248801 -39.0022749) to the farthest upstream extent of the river within the Municipality of Una (-15.232168 -39.3499589), then halved this distance to approximate the location of the geographic midpoint (-15.2285603 -39.1761088). Because the approximate geographic midpoint did not fall along the course of the Rio Una, used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find coordinates for the point along the river closest to the approximate geographic midpoint, on the adjacent shore. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the river within Mun. Una, 21087.1 m), and measurement error (0.1 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.)
