  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to 40 km "above," or upstream from, the city of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro (formerly named/synonymous with Tapuruquara) along Rio Negro. Used Google Maps - Earth View to locate the shore of the city of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro, along Rio Negro in Mun. Santa Isabel do Rio Negro, Amazonas. Beginning at the approximate geographic center of the shore of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro, used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to measure approximately 40 km (39.92 km) upstream along Rio Negro (toward the headwaters); used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the offset, along the adjacent shore (collection assumed to be terrestrial). Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool again to measure the linear extent of the starting location, the shore of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro, by measuring from the approximate geographic center of the city of Santa Isabel do Rio Negro to the nearest named place on the same side of Rio Negro, Guariba Ponta, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (8225.0 km), measurement error (0.025 km), and distance precision (10 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
