Georeferencing Method
Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to find the precise location of the "Yanomami indigenous reserve;" georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Rio Demini. Using Google Maps, located Rio Demini in Amazonas, BR. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line beginning at the mouth of Rio Demini (where it branches off of Rio Araçá) to the approximated end of Rio Demini (where it divides into two unmarked rivers); halved this extent to approximate the location of the midpoint of Rio Demini. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates, on adjacent land. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of Rio Demini, 108728 m.), and measurement error (1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: River, stream, path, road).
