Leandro Parente & Laerte Ferreira – Assessing the Spatial and Occupation Dynamics of the Brazilian Pasturelands Based on the Automated Classification of MODIS Images from 2000 to 2016.
This study mapped, through objective criteria and automatic classification methods (Random Forest) applied to MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) images, the totality of the Brazilian pastures between 2000 and 2016.
Parente et al. – Monitoring the brazilian pasturelands: A new mapping approach based on the landsat 8 spectral and temporal domains.
In this study, we utilized the entire set of Landsat 8 images available for Brazil in 2015, from which dozens of seasonal metrics were derived, to produce, through objective criteria and automated classification strategies, a new pasture map for the country.
Rosa, Marcos R – Comparação e análise de diferentes metodologias de mapeamento da cobertura florestal da Mata Atlântica.
The differences found in the products point to distinct and complementary uses, with the Atlas base most suitable for identifying deforestation and analyzing biodiversity conservation, and MapBiomas for analysis of fragmentation, restoration, and water protection. The options for the product that will be used vary according to the objective of the proposed work.
