Dominant Rural Technological Trajectories (TTs) dataset at municipality level of the Amazon Biome

<p>This dataset contains the dominant technological trajectories (TTs) of the Amazon Biome municipalities for the years of 1995, 2006 and 2017. The dominant trajectory is the one, among the six identified by Costa (2021), that is economically most important in the municipality. The relative share of the Gross Value of Rural Production of the trajectory in the total Gross Value of Rural Production in the municipality was taken as a proxy of economic importance. From the tabulation of the datasets in Costa (2021), the dominant technological trajectory was identified, it means, considering the methodology used, which of the six TTs was responsible for over 50% of the municipal Gross Value of Rural Production. The dominant TTs were calculated using the official municipal grid for the year the agricultural census was carried out.</p> <p>The dataset is organized as a .csv table, for each year (1995, 2006 and 2017), with a geographic key for each municipality (6-digit municipality code, 2-digit state code), that can be easily linked with municipality available shapefiles and other datasets.&nbsp;</p> <p>References:</p> <p>Costa, F.
