defined some additional methodological procedures necessary for the identification and subsequent
classification of the localized industrial activities.
The first refers to the minimum scale of industrial agglomeration, since the potential of spatial
effects of spillover and production complementarity only occurs after a certain critical level of
production. The reference value was set at R$ 100 million of industrial value-added, which equates to
the average industrial production value of 2,253 municipalities where industrial companies are located.
The second refers to the differentiation between LIA and IE. The basic difference lies between a
region with a dense urban network, integrated upstream and downstream with the local non-industrial
production base, mainly agriculture and services, and an industry-based locality with a surrounding
area of subsistence.
