The information is valuable to potential investors or public or private operators interested in promoting the development of forestry projects in the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) PK. We used Landsat 1988, 1989, 2008 and CBERS-2B 2009, the database and images of national forest inventory, surveys of field tree plantations. We compared the coverage of land use on images of 1989 and 2008. Surfaces covered with forests were characterized as non-eligible areas. The remaining area was classified as eligible land.
