  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to detect the precise location of the "rocky island" because there are multiple islands in Rio Negro nearby the city of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro (formerly named Tapuruquara). Instead, georeferenced to the geographic center of the shoreline of the city of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro (formerly named/synonymous with Tapuruquara) in Mun. Santa Isabel do Rio Negro, Amazonas. Used Google Maps - Earth View to locate the city of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro along Rio Negro. Used Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the city's shoreline. Because Santa Isabel do Rio Negro 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 nearest named place on the same side of Rio Negro, Guariba Ponta, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (8225.0 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
