Entry for land / BRAZIL

[silviodc]

This is a discussion about the submission for land / br.

We have some data for State of Sao Paulo.

However, they seems incomplete. Furthermore, the other states needs future investigation

There are 2 main sources of information about land registries in Brazil:

• Serviço Florestal Brasileiro (Brazilian Forest Service)
• Instituto Nacional de Colonização e Reforma Agrária - INCRA (National Institute for Colonization and Agrarian Reform)

Serviço Florestal Brasileiro

Maintains the Cadastro Ambiental Rural (Rural Environmental Registry), Cadastro de Imóveis Rurais - Cafir (Registry of Rural Real-estate) and . Data is available as:

• Statistics for the Cadastro de Imóveis Rurais (Cafir)
• Statistics for the “Cadastro Ambiental Rural” (CAR)
• Browsable map visualization of all land in Brazil, with detailed information once you click on a parcel of land
• Bulk downloads by state of all land data in Shapefile and CSV formats

Instituto Nacional de Colonização e Reforma Agrária - INCRA

Maintains Acervo fundiário and Sistema de Certificação de Imóveis Rurais. Data is available as:

• Map visualization
• Downloads in CSV, Shapefile, KML, GML and GeoJSON formats, in bulk by state
• Individual consultation form

With that much data, it seems really unfair to give a score of 0% to Brazil on this dataset. Is it really the case that none of this meets the criteria set by Cadasta Foundation?

To be fair, Serviço Florestal Brasileiro only released all this data about CAR in November 2016, which may have just fell out of the GODI deadline.
