  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Unable to find the precise location of "white sand island;" instead, georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Ilha Arara in Mun. Barcelos, Amazonas. Difficult to discern the precise spatial boundaries of Ilha Arara because there are multiple rivers that run throughout the island; approximated the boundaries. Used Google Maps - Earth View to locate Ilha Arara in Rio Negro. Used Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the island. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the approximate linear extent of the island by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate farthest extent of the island (measured to the river which separates Ilha Arara and the adjacent Ilha Mari-Mari). Input coordinates, linear extent (6630.0 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Defined Area).
