  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the road connecting the cities of Paramaribo and Kwatta in Paramaribo District, Suriname. Used Google Maps - Earth View to find the road which connects the two cities, Kwattaweg road. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to measure a straight line between the area where the road comes nearest to the approximate geographic center of Paramaribo (5.841928, -55.194635) and the area where this road meets the approximate geographic center of Kwatta (5.849950, -55.278162), then halved this distance to find the midpoint of the line. Chose a point along Kwattaweg road nearest to the midpoint of the line; used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate midpoint of the road. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool again to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of this segment of road. Input coordinates, coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), linear extent (4650.0 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
