This section contains the maps used as reference by MapBiomas Bolivia Collection 2.0 to train the classification algorithms and evaluate the quality of the project's automatic classification. These references come from various organizations and have varied temporal and geographic scales.
Some of these maps do not yet have public access, because they are in the process of publication. When available, the corresponding link will be included to allow downloading of the data directly from the original source.
