This publication provides guidelines to the best practice for georeferencing. Though it is targeted specifically at biological occurrence data, the concepts and methods presented here can be applied in other disciplines where spatial interpretation of location is of interest.
NB I notice that some references to a new doi - such as for the Georeferencing Calculator Manual, currently don't resolve and just go to GBIF.org. In other cases you have a reference such as "https://docs.gbif-uat.org/georeferencing-calculator-manual/1.0/en/". Is this just a temporary measure? We are inconsistent. See, for example points 16, and 17 below.
[x] First paragraph. Link to " Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide" should sporne a new tab.
[x] First Paragraph - "Zermoglio et al. 2020" should be includded in the link.
[x] under Globally Unique Identifier (GUID) Link to "Persistent Identifier, PID" is formatted wrongly for a Glossary link.
[x] under magnetic declination Link to "changes" should sporne a new tab.
[ ] under maximum uncertainty distance Link to "coordinateUncertaintyInMeter" should sporne a new tab. ALSO NOTE This should be "dwc:coordinateUncertaintyInMeter"
[x] under smallest enclosing circle Link to "Smallest-circle problem" should sporne a new tab.

[x] First Paragraph - Link for " Georeferencing Calculator" should be to "http://georeferencing.org/georefcalculator/gc.html" - NOT to the Manual. AND the link should sporne a new tab.
[x] First Paragraph - "Wieczorek & Wieczorek 2020" should be included in the link.
[x] under accuracy For "Geodetic Survey Division 1996" add link "ftp://glonass-center.ru/REPORTS/OLD/NRCAN/Accuracy_Standards.pdf" and sporne new tab.
[x] under accuracy as Noted before the FGDC.gov website is temporarily unavailable. I am chasing this up.
[x] under bias "error" should have a glossary link.
[x] under Darwin Core Link for "Darwin Core" should sporne a new tab.
[x] under data quality Link to "Chapman 2005a" should be "https://www.gbif.org/document/80509/principles-of-data-quality" Current doi dopes not resolve.
[ ] under false precision Link to " degrees, minutes, and seconds" is in the wrong format for a glossary link.
[ ] under footprint Both Links to "footprintWKT" and "footprintSpatialFit" should sporne new tabs.
[x] under geographic radial Link for "Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide (Wieczorek et al. 2012a)" should be to "http://georeferencing.org/docs/GeoreferencingQuickGuide.pdf" NOT to the new edition.
[x] under geographic radial Link for "Georeferencing Calculator (Wieczorek & Wieczorek 2018)" should be to "https://github.com/VertNet/georefcalculator/releases/tag/v20180620" NOT to the new edition.
[x] under geographic radial "Wieczorek & Wieczorek 2018" should be included in the link.
