  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to map "Location of Brownsberg Nature Park" from "Photo impression of status Brownsberg Nature Park, February 2012" from the World Wildlife Fund for more detailed information on the spatial extent of Brownsberg Nature Park (http://d2ouvy59p0dg6k.cloudfront.net/downloads/brownsberg_presentation_2.pdf, accessed: 4/21/2015). Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Brownsberg Nature Park in Brokopondo, Suriname. Used Google Maps - Earth View to locate the Nature Park. Used the Google Map - What's Here Tool to find the approximate geographic center of the Park. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the park (using the reference map and visual evidence). Input coordinates, linear extent (17390.0 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).
