• Georeferencing Method

  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the shoreline of Emilia, along Rio Javari (synonymous with Rio Yavari). Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the city of Emilia in Loreto Region, Peru. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the shoreline of Emilia, along Rio Javari. Because Emilia does not have defined spatial boundaries, used Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to find linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the geographic center of the nearest named place along Rio Javari within Peru, Santa Rita, then halving that distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (8812.6 m.), and measurement error (.1 m.) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
