  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the location where Rio Tototobí branches off from Rio Demini (on the adjacent land at the confluence of the waterways). Referred to "Use of Myristicaceous Snuffs" map for location of Rio Tototobí (Schultes, Richard E., "The Plant Kingdom and Hallucinogens." 30 August 2001. http://www.unodc.org/images/bulletin/bulletin_1969-01-01_4_page004_img001_large.gif). Using Google Maps, located Rio Tototobí, a tributary of Rio Demini in Amazonas, BR. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the adjacent land closest to the geographic center of the mouth of Rio Tototobí (meeting of Rio Demini and Rio Tototobí). Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the confluence. Input coordinates, linear extent (64.3061 m.), and measurement error (.0001 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Mouth or headwaters of a river, confluence of waterways, trailhead).
