The MAPBIOMAS project gathers data reporting the type of land covering each year by area, that is, for example, the area used for a temporary crop of soybeans. It also reports the transition between coverings during given years.
The data available has an yearly frequency and is available starting from the year 1989.
Using the function is easy enough:
library(datazoom.amazonia)
# download treated Mapbiomas Cover data in english
data = load_mapbiomas(dataset = "mapbiomas_cover", raw_data = FALSE, time_period = "all",
language = "eng")
# download treated Mapbiomas Transition data in portuguese
data = load_mapbiomas(dataset = "mapbiomas_transition", raw_data = FALSE, time_period = "all",
language = "pt")
# download treated Mapbiomas Grazing Quality data in portuguese
data = load_mapbiomas(dataset = "mapbiomas_grazing_quality", raw_data = FALSE, time_period = "all", language = "pt")
# download treated Mapbiomas Irrigation data in english
data = load_mapbiomas(dataset = "mapbiomas_irrigation", raw_data = FALSE, time_period = "all", language = "eng")
# download treated Mapbiomas deforestauon/regeneration data in portuguese
data = load_mapbiomas(dataset = "mapbiomas_deforestation_regeneration", raw_data = FALSE, time_period = 2011, language = "eng")
