Shapefile | Alerts from 2019 to 2025 presenting:

• alert_code: unique alert code (formatted as one line per alert: this shape will show differences in area calculations for biome, state, and municipality because it assigns the area to the predominant category)
• souce: data sources for the original deforestation alert that entered the validation and refinement process of MapBiomas Alert
• area_ha: alert area in hectare
• biome: predominant biome (when the alert spans the boundary between more than one biome, the one with the largest area is recorded. In the report, values per biome are calculated based on the intersection area of each biome)
• state: predominant state (when the alert spans more than one state, the state with the largest area is listed. In the report, values by state are calculated based on the intersection area of each state)
• city: predominant municipality (when the alert spans more than one municipality, the one with the largest area is listed. In the report, values by municipality are calculated based on the intersection area of each municipality)
• ano_det: year of detection for the alert
