  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the geographic center of San José in the vicinity of Mapiri, Prov. Larecaja, La Paz Department. Used the Google Maps - Earth View to find the village of San José, nearby Mapiri. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of San José. Because San José does not have defined spatial boundaries on Google Maps, used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the approximate linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic center of the nearest named place, Copacabana, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (1175.0 m), and measurement error (10 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to the Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Undefined Area).
