  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to a point along the shore of the Rio Maruim closest to the approximate geographic midpoint of the section of the Rio Maruim that straddles the border between the Reserva Biologica de Una and the Ecoparque de Una, in Mun. Una, Bahia. Using Wikimapia, located both the Reserva Biologica de Una and the Ecoparque de Una, and found maps of their approximate boundaries, which were then verified using maps published on the Ecoparque de Una website (http://www.ecoparque.org.br/localizacao.htm). Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line beginning at the northwestern most part of the section of river that straddles the border between the Ecoparque and the Reserve, to the most southeastern part of this section of river, then halved this distance to approximate the location of the geographic midpoint. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find coordinates for a point alongside the river closest to the midpoint. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the section of river straddling the border between the Ecoparque and the Reserve, 1420.48 m), and measurement error (0.01 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the Uncertainty radius.
