Georeferencing Method
Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the city of Iquitos in Loreto, Peru. Used Google Maps- Earth View to locate Iquitos. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the city. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the city (spatial boundaries provided by Google Maps). Input coordinate source (locality description), coordinates, datum (WGS84), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), extent of named place (7220 m), and measurement error (10 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Bounded Area).
