Abstract
This paper has the aim to present the Base Continuous Mapping from Brazil on scale of 1:1.000.000 – BCIM inside the Permanent Program Updating from IBGE. This program consists in update and maintenance permanent of the whole Brazilian territory, this mean a strategy to subsidize the regions management and also contribute to studies that use environmental politics. These activities of updating require uses of satellite images, like ALOS, Landsat, RapidEye, information from other institutions and field work. The incorporation of technologies like Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing in the systematic mapping contributed to developing of a base unique and integrated of the whole brazilian territory. This continual vectorial base is available for consulting on the IBGE website (www.ibge.gov.br) and in the National Infrastructure Spatial Data (INDE) website (www.inde.gov.br). This cartographic base is now into the new standard of the Geospatial Data Vectorial Structure (EDGV) that contemplate a new structure of storage of geospatial data for integration with data of INDE.
