Georeferencing Method
Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to find the precise location of "Cachoeiras do Patuá e Paraiso Grande;" instead georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the length of river Rio Mapuéra in Pará, Brazil in accordance with other locality descriptions. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located Rio Mapuéra, a tributary of Rio Trombetas. Used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to measure a straight line beginning at the mouth of Rio Mapuéra (at confluence of Rio Mapuéra and Rio Trombetas) to the farthest extent of Rio Mapuéra (approximated through the dense forest); halved this distance to approximate the location of the midpoint of the river. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the midpoint, on the adjacent shore. Input coordinates, linear extent (distance from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the river, 133398 m.), and measurement error (1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
