Georeferencing Method: Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012 (Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Jodensavanne in Carolina, Suriname, taking into account the added uncertainty of the word "prope" (near) in the locality description. Used the Google Maps - Earth View to find the area of Jodensavanne. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the village. Because the center of the nearest named place, Redi Doti, is farther from the center of the named place than the linear extent of Jodensavanne itself, followed the "Case A" method of Near a Named Place of the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide. Because Jodensavanne does not have defined spatial boundaries on Google Maps, used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic center of the nearest named place, Redi Doti, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (890.0 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Near a Named Place).)
Coordinate Uncertainty(m): 896.569
Geodetic Datum: WGS84
Coordinates: (5.41754, -54.9644)
