| findable | 4 | since i know IPP is responsible for maps and geolocation data from Rio de Janeiro’s city it was easy from that point on. |
| findable_steps | i googled IPP maps and IPP shapefile and got the links i needed it | if i google "geodata rio" IPPs open source platform is the first one on the list, so, i suppose it's easy to get the data. |

| usability | 3 | IPP’s open data geo website has a search engine, which helps, the whole website is really easy to navigate. https://portalgeo.pcrj.opendata.arcgis.com/ |
| collector_name | IPP- Instituto Pereira Passos | IPP is a municipal government institute linked to Rio’s Urban Planning Bureau, and it is responsible for the official Cartography and Municipal Geoprocessing of the city. |
| characteristics | Scale of 1:250,000 (1 cm = 2.5km), Markings of traffic routes, Markings of relief/heights, Markings of water stretches, City borders | I can get a map with the scale 1:10,000 of the whole city - which is bigger then 1:250,000, so I that's why I considered it checked. I was able to download data from Sub Basins, so i checked the water stretches map. I can also get data from several ways the city is divided in a public policy kind of way, from neighborhood to policy watch areas, and so on, also markings and reliefs. The only problem i got was on downloading "markings of national traffic routes", i was able to find only through both Universities websites i linked before. |
