Off-road route automation
Off-road trafficability planning is essential for operations in remote or infrastructure scarce environments, yet it remains a complex task due to the variability of terrain conditions and the absence of established routes. This study aims to develop an automated approach for generating off-road routes by integrating terrain trafficability modeling with a shortest-path algorithm. We present a method that combines seasonal vehicle trafficability m…
Off-road trafficability using multicriteria decision analysis
This study presents an original methodological contribution by developing and validating a replicable framework for the generation of vehicle trafficability maps through refined spatial modeling techniques, relying on biophysical, infrastructure, and meteorological variables. By integrating remote sensing data, Geographic Object-Based Image Analysis (GEOBIA), Machine Learning classification (Random Forest), and Multicriteria Decision Analysis (MC…
Water-related disasters in Brazil
Over the past few decades, socio-natural disasters have become an increasingly prominent theme in the daily lives of individuals in both developed and developing countries. This study aims to provide a general overview of nearly 60,000 records of water-related disasters (WRDs - i.e., floods, storms, landslides, and droughts) that occurred in Brazil from 1991 to 2024. The impacts are presented according to the country’s geographic regions. The num…
Monitoring Wildfires in the Northeastern Peruvian Amazon Using Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 Imagery in the GEE Platform
During the latest decades, the Amazon has experienced a great loss of vegetation cover, in many cases as a direct consequence of wildfires, which became a problem at local, national, and global scales, leading to economic, social, and environmental impacts. Hence, this study is committed to developing a routine for monitoring fires in the vegetation cover relying on recent multitemporal data (2017–2019) of Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 imagery using t…
Dynamic modeling to support an integrated analysis among land use change, accessibility and gentrification
Educational infrastructure and its impact on urban land use change in a peri-urban area
Air Quality and Health Impacts of Future Ethanol Production and Use in São Paulo State, Brazil
It is often argued that liquid biofuels are cleaner than fossil fuels, and therefore better for human health, however, the evidence on this issue is still unclear. Brazil's high uptake of ethanol and role as a major producer makes it the most appropriate case study to assess the merits of different biofuel policies. Accordingly, we modeled the impact on air quality and health of two future fuel scenarios in São Paulo State: a business-as-usual sc…
Interpretação de imagens orbitais por meio de sistema especialista para o mapeamento de cobertura da terra em região montanhosa
Mapas de cobertura da terra constituem uma importante fonte de dados para a elaboração de diagnóstico, ordenamento e gestão do território, sendo fundamentais em projetos de zoneamentos, estudos de impactos ambientais, mapeamentos de áreas de riscos, entre outras aplicações. Em geral, são elaborados com base na interpretação de imagens aerotransportadas ou orbitais e/ou na análise de documentos cartográficos, conjugadas a trabalhos de campo. As té…
