SIAD

 A system that uses satellite radars to track changes in native vegetation in the Xingu River Basin.

The result of a partnership between the Management and Operational Center of the Amazon Protection System (Censipam) and the Federal University of Goiás, the Integrated Deforestation Alert System for the Legal Amazon (SIAD) adds information on the origins and impacts of deforestation to deforestation alerts, such as whether or not they are associated with fires, infrastructure works, conservation units, indigenous lands, productive activities, etc… It also projects future deforestation and identifies priority areas for inspection and control by public institutions.
