| This project arose from the need to generate and consolidate geospatial databases, implementing an infrastructure in order to organize and make this data available to improve Embrapa's RD&I capacity. As well as to allow sharing of the data collection to other government agencies and to society, and also the establishment of a multiuser reference center for obtaining spectroradiometric measurements of targets of interest to tropical agriculture. The implementation of Embrapa's Spatial Data Infras ... Status: Completed Start date: Sun Jun 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2014 |

A geomorphological mapping of the Restinga de Jurubatiba National Park, in the State of Rio de Janeiro, was proposed in this project, to assist in environmental planning, using geotechnologies and geographic information systems. The delimitation of preservation areas such as the Restinga de Jurubatiba National Park aims to maintain the environmental balance of these environments, a necessary measure due to the expansion of urban areas that suppress natural areas. The paper presented a tempora ...Status: Completed Start date: Sat Jun 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2013 |
| The project aims at assessing methods and innovative techniques in the area of Remote Sensing and spatial data integration for detection in cultivation practices and production systems, especially integrated crop-livestock-forestry systems (ICLFs) and variations, which constitute one of the key points of the low carbon agriculture policy.

| The TerraClass project, a partnership between Embrapa and the National Institute of Space Research (Inpe) initiated in 2010, was created to produce a new outlook, based on scientific and impartial data, on the use and cover of deforested areas of the Brazilian Amazon region, as per annually identified by Inpe's Prodes program. The first maps generated by the project, referring to the use and cover of lands deforested by 2008, 2010, and 2012, respectively, established a starting point for the und Status: Completed Start date: Mon Jun 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2015 |

Forest systems are part of an important land-use strategy aimed at the maintenance of biodiversity, at the commercialization of wood products and other products, at quality of life and at environmental services such as carbon fixation. The greenhouse gas emission flows and the carbon stocked in the forests are indispensable information, and their estimation may support public policies on development and sustainability. Project GeoSaltus focuses on the use of geotechnologies for the developmen ...Status: Completed Start date: Fri Jun 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2012 |
| This project applied geotechnologies to understand the cause and effect relationships between agricultural activities and greenhouse gas emissions processes, generating subsidies for management decisions that were agronomically and environmentally sustainable. For that, maps of pastures of the national territory were updated and geotechnologies were used to spatialize and monitor natural resources, human activities, and the consequences of these activities on the Earth's surface.

| According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), a quarter of the national greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions comes from agricultural activities, and 93% of the CH4 emitted originates from enteric fermentation. Despite that, the agriculture practiced within given management standards can result in a lower GHG emissions. The GeoPecus project's goal is the application of geotechnologies for the understanding of the cause and effect relationship between agricultural activities and the Status: Completed Start date: Fri Apr 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2011 |
