  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the forested area between the city of Jaci Paraná and Rio Madeira in Rondônia, Brazil. Used Google Maps - Earth and Maps Views to locate the city of Jaci Paraná and Rio Madeira. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of Jaci Paraná (-9.251999, -64.409539). Used the Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool to measure a straight line between the selected coordinates to the closest shore of Rio Madeira (-9.212224, -64.408599), directly north of the city of Jaci Paraná, then halved this distance to approximate the midpoint between these two features (-9.232415, -64.408483). Used the Google Maps – Measure Distanace Tool again to approximate the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates (of midpoint) to the farther of the features. Input: coordinates (-9.232415, -64.408483), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), linear extent (2250.0 m), and measurement error (10 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (2262 m). According to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide: Named Place, Between two Places.
