  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to an offset of 74.5 km west of the approximate geographic center of the city of Guayaquil in Guayas, Ecuador. Used Google Maps - Earth View to locate the city of Guayaquil. 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 approximate linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the city (spatial extent provided by Google Maps). Input coordinates (-2.175392, -79.94985), linear extent (15.3 km), offset distance (74.5 km), offset direction (W), measurement error (.005 km), and distance precision (1/2 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the offset coordinates and the uncertainty radius (according to Offset: Offset at a heading).
