Costa Rica · 100 ha

Rivas, San Jose

Intact · Conserve

Little changed by people. The work is to keep it so.

90of 100range 76 to 100 · 42% sure

Condition of the land

The score, 0 to 100. 100 is land of its kind that people have left alone.

487896

90 reads intact (96 and above). The range, 76 to 100, is where its two measures disagree; 42% of it stays intact. A site visit settles it.

This land is close to how land of its kind looks when people leave it alone. The work here is keeping it that way.

Read from two measures

Unchanged83

How little people have changed it, from roads and buildings to fields and lights.

Unconverted98

How much of it is not fields, buildings, or missing the forest it would carry.

The score sits between the two.

Trees now 84%. Left alone, about 79%.

The land's signature

Five pillars under the score, 0 at the centre to 100 at the rim: water, ecology, climate resilience, freedom from pressure and soil.

Floor, 40Short of the floorTree cover, 84%

The dashed amber circle is the fair floor, 40; red is the shortfall below it. Dotted: the first signed reading.

StrengthA watercourse runs through the parcel. A mapped river or stream crosses the parcel (Río Buenavista).
RiskThe terrain is steep, which constrains construction and raises erosion risk. Mean slope 14.3°, with 358 m of elevation change across the parcel.
UnknownMost of the parcel reads as tree cover. 84% of the parcel reads as tree cover (satellite land-cover mapping).
First moveDesign roads and structures to the contour, and get a geotechnical and erosion assessment before any earthworks.
