The Alert Report is an automatically generated document on the MapBiomas Alerta platform that aggregates technical information about the alert, allowing for direct and rapid analysis of the location, probable dates of deforestation, and relevant territorial/land crossings, such as rural properties (Environmental Registry of Rural Properties - CAR boundaries) and protected areas, among others. This document serves to streamline and facilitate analysis and decision-making by users of the MapBiomas Alerta platform. When crossed with a CAR property, it is possible to generate specific reports of the intersection with the alert and high-resolution images before and after deforestation, followed by complementary information, such as: 

  • overlap of the deforestation alert with protected areas (Conservation Units and Indigenous Lands), settlements, Permanent Preservation Areas (APP), Legal Reserve (RL), springs, etc.;
  • overlap of the alert with areas of Authorization for the Suppression of Native Vegetation, Embargoes and Forest Management Plan;
  • history of land use and cover in MapBiomas over the last few years;
  • methodology;
  • data source.
