Kernel density of deforestation: where the pressure is concentrated

A heat map of PRODES 2025 deforestation that combines area and number of polygons into an index from 0 to 1, with radius and cell size in meters. It also shows how to compute a kernel density in PostGIS without rasters, and why normalizing makes the programs comparable.
