  • Georeferencing Method

    Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to Geonames.org for location information for Zanderij II in Para, Suriname (http://www.geonames.org/maps/google_5.333_-55.267.html, accessed: 4/20/2015). Used Google Maps - Earth View to locate the approximate area of the city of Zanderij II. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the city. Because the area does not have defined spatial boundaries on Google Maps, used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the approximate linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic center of the nearest named place, the city of Sectie, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (2135.0 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
