Brazilian Relief Classification System

Description

Aiming at standardizing issues related to the classification structure of the Brazilian relief, the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), the Brazilian Geological Service (SGB/CPRM), the Brazilian Geomorphology Union (UGB) and researchers from several Brazilian education institutions joined to develop the Brazilian System of Relief Classification (SBCR), aiming at creating a single taxonomic system of relief classification that provides a common language and the standardization, structuring and recommendation of its representation.

This environment will publish advances involved in the development of this system, including the publication of the system itself, reports of the workshops on the SBCR, Relief Classification Meetings and technical expeditions carried out in events to disseminate it to the scientific society.
