Georeferencing Method
Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Based on collector and year of collection, referred to another collection from same collector for reference coordinates for Tapera (NYBG Site IRN: 552693). Georeferenced to the approximate geographic midpoint of Rio Tapacurá in the city of Tapera, Mun. Vitória de Santo Antão, Pernambuco. Used the reference coordinates and Google Maps - Earth and Map Views to locate Rio Tapacurá within Tapera. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic midpoint of Rio Tapacurá within Tapera (where the river comes closest to the approximate location of Tapera). Because Tapera does not have clearly defined spatial boundaries, used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to approximate the linear extent of the river within Tapera by measuring from the selected coordinates to the location where the river meets the approximate geographic center of the nearest named place, the city of São Bento, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, coordinate source (locality description), coordinate precision (.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), linear extent (2575.0 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Undefined Area).
