Neste livro, buscamos disponibilizar uma ferramenta que auxilie no processamento de imagens de satélite para monitoramento da cobertura do solo com ênfase na identificação de cicatrizes de fogo em diferentes composições falsa-cor, através da utilização de bases de dados e softwares gratuitos, ou seja, um guia prático de identificação de incêndios em imagens de satélite gratuitas. Contribuindo, desta forma, tanto na aquisição de dados, como no seu processamento e nos estudos referentes à cobertura do solo do país. Consideramos isso algo fundamental para análise da biodiversidade de um determinado ambiente de estudo onde ocorre prolongada época de seca.
This book explores the concept of 'cognitive injustice': the failure to recognise the different ways of knowing by which people across the globe run their lives and provide meaning to their existence. Boaventura de Sousa Santos shows why global social justice is not possible without global cognitive justice.
