Centro de Estudos da Metrópole

The two archives available here were produced between 2016 and 2017 and provide the bases that were elaborated from existing databases, compatible with the 1: 10,000 scale, seeking the complementation of the cartographic collection available not only to the researchers of the center, but also to society through the CEM website. The geographical conception of hydrography recognizes two basic types of phenomena on continental surfaces: watercourses (rivers, streams, channels) and bodies of water (lakes and reservoirs).

The set of files now available contains the polygons of conservation units and other green areas of the Municipality of São Paulo (RMSP), and were prepared by the CEM / Cepid Transfer team, under the coordination of geographer José Donizete Cazzolato. In conjunction with hydrographic and river basin layers, this base mainly meets the demands of environmental research within the RMSP, not only considering those carried out within the scope of CEM / Cebrap, but also to external researchers and other interested parties, through the website.
