  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Igarapé do Campo in Mun. Caracarai, Roraima. Used Google Maps - Earth View to locate Igarapé do Campo, a tributary of Rio Água Boa do Univini. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to measure a straight line between the mouth of Igarapé do Campo (confluence of Igarapé do Campo and Rio Água Boa do Univini) and headwaters of the stream (approximated through the dense forest cover), then halved this distance to find the midpoint of the line. Chose a point along Igarapé do Campo nearest to the midpoint of the line; used Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic midpoint of the stream, on the adjacent shore (collection assumed to be terrestrial). Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool again to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the stream. Input coordinates, linear extent (19130.0 m), and measurement error (2.5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
