This study, part of the TANGO-Circular Project, employs Geographic Information System (GIS) tools for biomass management in Portugal. The project, spanning five European countries (France, Greece, Italy, Portugal and Spain), aims to advance agricultural waste utilization through innovative technologies. This study, albeit preliminary, focuses on the implementation of GIS to plan and map the valorization of agricultural residues. Thematic maps, generated through open-access software (Q-GIS), illustrate the spatial distribution of biomass types such as forest residues, cereal straw, pruning residues, livestock manure, agro-food industries by-products, organic urban waste, and agricultural plastic waste. These maps, presented at Nuts 3 levels, provide valuable insights, supporting the project's goal of fostering sustainable biomass management within a Circular Economy framework.

摘要

This study, part of the TANGO-Circular Project, employs Geographic Information System (GIS) tools for biomass management in Portugal. The project, spanning five European countries (France, Greece, Italy, Portugal and Spain), aims to advance agricultural waste utilization through innovative technologies. This study, albeit preliminary, focuses on the implementation of GIS to plan and map the valorization of agricultural residues. Thematic maps, generated through open-access software (Q-GIS), illustrate the spatial distribution of biomass types such as forest residues, cereal straw, pruning residues, livestock manure, agro-food industries by-products, organic urban waste, and agricultural plastic waste. These maps, presented at Nuts 3 levels, provide valuable insights, supporting the project's goal of fostering sustainable biomass management within a Circular Economy framework.
