Ongoing and next steps

  • Integrate data from MapBiomas Land Trasitions and MapBiomas Fogo
  • Explore methods to integrate fire data from MapBiomas into assessments effectively
  • Enhance communication with collaborators by implementing a messaging system to streamline the collection of data
  • Improve historical data analysis techniques through advanced methodologies
  • Advance the assessment of all Legume species
