• Georeferencing Method

  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Using geographic clues and other locality descriptions, assumed this locality is along to Rio Branco (in Roraima), another tributary of Rio Negro. Rio Urubu does not reach município Roaima and is not anywhere near Iracema. Also, unable to locate "Natal." Georeferenced to Rio Branco in Iracema. Using Google Maps, located Serra da Lua. Using visual evidence, found where Rio Branco is in village of Serra da Lua, then approximated the geographic center (along banks of Rio Branco). Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates. Used measurement tool (Google Maps) to measure from coordinates to the center of the nearest named place, Caracaraí. Halved this distance to find linear extent of Iracema, 38585.7 m.. Used linear extent as uncertainty radius.
