A Proposal for a Global Forest Information System
Gilberto Câmara, INPELúbia Vinhas, INPEDalton Valeriano, INPEFred Fonseca, Penn State Univ.Clodoveu Davis, Univ Minas Gerais - Brazil
How can Brazil achieve its deforestation targets?
Brazilian National Plan for Climate Change
Degradation and deforestationT2 – Partial Loss of forest structureT1 - Selective logging
T3 – Collapse of forest structure
Barlow and Peres (2008)
T4 – Clear-cut area
T1,5 – Loss of undercover due to fire
Progressive degradationT1 – Selective logging
T2 – Partial loss of forest structure T3 – Complete loss of forest structure
Severely degraded forest Pasture
Marcelândia (MT, Brazil) – Jan-2008(4.000 ha)
Pasture inside a forest area
Progressive degradation: the final steps
~230 scenes Landsat/year
Yearly detailed estimates of clear-cut areas
PRODES: Clear-cut deforestation mapping
15-day alerts of newly deforested large areas
DETER: Real-time deforestation monitoring
DEGRAD: Forest degradation

vector data
Alerta DETER nov-2007Landsat/TM (August 2007) MODIS (November 2007)
How hard is to use MODIS?
Detection of deforestation and degradation in MODIS requires much expertise (low-resolution artifacts)
Clearing area for pasture
Checking DETER´s data (February 2008)
Validation is essential for credibility!
How hard is to use ALOS?

Results: Wall-to-wall maps
Deforestation is spatially autocorrelated (wall-to-wall maps are required)

The Anti-Uncle Scrooge Principle
A pixel unused is a penny wasted
LANDSAT data archive (USGS)
A penny saved is a penny earned
Value comes from use!
What is a public good?
Non-rival ...[goods] which all enjoy in common in the sense that each
individual's consumption of such a good leads to no subtractions from any other individual's consumption of that good... (Samuelson)
Non-excludableit is impossible to exclude any individuals from consuming the good
Almost all spatial data are public goods
Global Forest Information System
The Digital Earth vision …images, maps, research
results, laws, policies, and citizen-provided information can be indexed, searched, discovered and used by any interested parties...
A Global Forest Information SystemLANDSAT TM (30 m) CBERS HRC (2,5 m)
Navigate, describe, understand: image navigation and processing, production and dissemination of information, knowledge-building using semantics
“A few satellites can cover the entire globe, but there needs to be a system in place to ensure their images are readily available to everyone who needs them. Brazil has set an important precedent by making its Earth-observation data available, and the rest of the world should follow suit.”
Data for the world´s tropical areas
Global satellite data in 5 meter+ will be freeConcerted action needed with benefits to all involved

Development as Freedom (Amartya Sen)
The goal of development is the promotion and expansion of valuable capabilities. Capability is the freedom to achieve valuable beings and doings.
