Demonstration · public data
Step 1 of 5
Image
Sentinel-2, September 27, 2026: 11,094 ha around Nova Serrana (Minas Gerais), public data only.
Step 2 of 5
Relief
Contour lines every 20 m, from the Copernicus elevation model, at 30 m resolution.
Step 3 of 5
Drainage
105.5 km of network inferred from the relief, from headwaters to outlet. Not the official hydrography.
Step 4 of 5
Constraints
30 m strip along the inferred drainage, slope of 30% or more and native vegetation mapped in 2024.
Step 5 of 5
Interferences and alternatives
134 ha of the strip already urbanized; 5,725 ha with no mapped constraint, where the study of alternatives begins, not where it ends.
Layers
Demonstration with public data for Nova Serrana (Minas Gerais): Sentinel-2, Copernicus DEM and MapBiomas. It does not correspond to any project, client or property, and land with no mapped constraint is not land fit for development. Sources, method and limits of the reading
Who we work for
Permitting, permit conditions, offsets, land-use constraints and environmental and social risk shape schedule, CAPEX and feasibility. H·MARIZ treats them as decision variables, from the outset.
Infrastructure
Concessions, linear infrastructure and regulated assets.
Mining
Expansions, new facilities and environmental liabilities.
Real estate development
Land subdivisions and developments in constrained areas.
Industry
New facilities, expansions and regulatory compliance.
Energy and electrical infrastructure
Lines and assets where permitting and permit conditions shape delivery and expansion.
Investment projects
Acquisitions and capital-intensive assets.
We also work in other sectors where environmental or land constraints materially shape project decisions.
Applied intelligence
Environmental engineering and regulatory management extended by technology and AI: the reading structures the text and points to the source; the technical responsibility stays with the engineer.

Demonstration · synthetic documents
Step 1 of 4
License, technical opinion, request for information and terms of reference, as they arrive. Here, synthetic documents written for the demonstration.
Step 2 of 4
In each document, the obligation and the deadline are identified in the text, with the source item noted.
Step 3 of 4
Each obligation becomes a row of the matrix: requirement, source and deadline. What the text does not say stays blank.
Step 4 of 4
Each row points to its source passage. The engineer reviews, sets the owner and only then does the matrix become a deliverable.

Capabilities
Each practice has a page with scope, deliverables and what proves the capability.
Permitting strategy, studies and permit conditions under control, with technical and institutional engagement with regulators.
Constraints, land tenure and alternative locations, through GIS and remote sensing.
Soil, groundwater and regulatory gaps of land, facilities and assets under acquisition, investment or compliance.
Governance, programs, indicators and commitments built for day-to-day operations, not just for reporting.
Implementation, integration, certification readiness and maintenance: ISO 9001, 14001, 45001, 37001 and 37301.
Structured reading of permits and agency opinions, permit-conditions matrices and traceability, checked by the engineer.

Leadership
Environmental Engineer · Environmental and Regulatory Strategy
H·MARIZ grew out of hands-on experience integrating environmental issues into strategic business decisions.
An environmental engineer and environmental and ESG executive, Henrique built his career managing complex projects, coordinating consultancies and specialists and leading engagement with public agencies and communities. In an executive role, he worked on structuring, certifying and maintaining the integrated management system of a high-complexity infrastructure project.
Every engagement is senior-led and hands-on. The same professional who frames the problem develops the strategy and stays involved through execution.
