PortGEO brought together several projects and actions developed at Embrapa with a thematic focus on the study and assessment of environmental, socioeconomic and institutional factors associated with the dynamics of land use and cover (causes and effects), as well as their interactions, impacts, products and outcomes. The project was developed to manage and consolidate information from Embrapa's R&D and TT projects within a consolidated structure, in order to organize, make this information available and improve its RD&I capacity.
