  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced along Rio Corrientes near the Ecuador border between Teniente Lopez and Puesto Avanzado in Loreto Province, Peru. Referred to Geonames.org for locality information for Teniente Lopez (http://www.geonames.org/maps/google_-2.592_-76.118.html, accessed 6/30/15). Used Google Maps – Earth View to locate the approximate geographic center of Teniente Lopez (-2.59233, -76.11787). Used Google Maps – Earth View to locate the approximate geographic center of Puesto Avanzado (-2.399999, -76.333332). Used Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to measure a straight line between the two geographic centers for these areas (32.1 km), then halved this distance (16.05 km) to find the midpoint. Moved the midpoint to the closest point along the shore of Rio Corrientes; used the Google Maps- What's Here Tool to find the midpoint along the shore of the river (collection assumed to be terrestrial). Midpoint is used as the geographic center of Rio Corrientes between Teniente Lopez and Puesto Avanzado. Used Google Maps- Measure Distance Tool again to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the segment of Rio Corrientes (17.68 km). Input coordinate source (locality description), datum (WGS84), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), linear extent (17680 m), and measurement error (10 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
