In the midst of pressure on the government for responsibility for environmental management in depth for the deaths of indigenist Bruno Pereira and English journalist Dom Phillips, IBAMA launched this week a new environmental information system on the internet.
In partnership with the company Geosistemas, the program, called Pamgia (Platform for Geospatial Analysis and Monitoring of Environmental Information), promises to monitor geographic data on a large scale.
The objective is to integrate the environmental information bases spread across five directorates of IBAMA.
According to the company, the monitoring will support managers and technicians in planning, preventing and combating environmental illicit in the Legal Amazon, in addition to helping to protect other biomes and Brazilian jurisdictional waters.
