• Georeferencing Method

  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of the shore of São Felipe, which sits along Rio Negro in Amazonas, Brazil. Using Google Maps - Satellite View, located the city of São Felipe along Rio Negro. Used Canadensys Lat/Long Crosshairs to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the shore. Because the area does not have defined spatial boundaries, used the Distance Measurement Tool (Google Maps) to approximate the linear extent of the shoreline of São Felipe by measuring to the nearest named place on the same side of Rio Negro, Missão Boa Vista, then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (5398.45 m), and measurement error (.01 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
