Anyone with a great mind and idea will help. I am designing it over IBGE's DATA (BRAZILIAN INSTITUTE OF GEOGRAPHY AND STATISTICS) of Brazilian poor slam areas, divided by state, e.g.: Rio de janeiro, S�o Paulo, Minas Gerais, Esp�rito Santo etc.

Please leave your comments and remarks for this cause, it could maybe worth for tourists and anyone else safety with the right tools.

If you have the CSV file to complete you want and filter it by state, I can do myself without any problems .... even for single city if you want to

Bye,bye

Great, great ideia.
I was once stranded in a suburb near Avenida Brasil and could not find my way back. Almost entered a favela.

Grande id�ia !
Tempos atr�s estive perdido perto da Avenida Brasil e n�o achava o caminho de volta. Quase entrei numa favela.
