A representative set of distinct land use classes were chosen to optimize representation and minimize computational requirements in the MESSAGE framework.

The map represents the cultivated area of 14 crops, double crop areas, planted forests and pastures, plus the natural remnants of forests and savannas, both inside and outside of protected areas (Soares-Filho et al., 2016).
