BRASA - A merger proposal for burned area in Brazil.

Description

Contact: henri.leaos@gmail.com | paulo.leao@cemaden.gov.br

Purpose: A burned area product that maps the largest extent of burned coverage in Brazil. This asset is the result from the fusion of three datasets at different scales: Global products that offer a broader and more conservative view with a coarser resolution (MCD64A1 - 500m and Fire_CCI 250m), combined with regional products with a finer resolution (Mapbiomas Collection 2 - 30m).

Coverage: Brazil

Period: 2001 - 2020

Spatial resolution: 30-meters

Temporal resolution: Annual

Coordinate reference system: Geographic Coordinate System with Datum WGS-84 (EPSG:4326)

File format: Each zip file contains nine tiles in compressed TIFF format. The pixel values represent the area burned and the origin of the information. 

Legend: 

  • Mapbiomas2 - 1
  • Fire_CCI - 3
  • Mapbiomas2 + Fire_CCI = 4
  • MCD64A1 - 7
  • Mapbiomas2 + MCD64A1 = 8
  • Fire_CCI + MCD64A1 = 10
  • Mapbiomas2 + Fire_CCI + MCD64A1 = 11
