Comments

The new iGEO site provides full maps with 1:10000 resolution and clear open data terms.

However, this data is free for academic and research purposes, but sold for commercial purposes (e.g. companies). This is made clear in their FAQ (in Portuguese):

«A utilização da informação é gratuita para a Administração Pública e Academia, prevendo-se a cobrança de taxas justas para as empresas, com aplicação de descontos caso se tratem de entidades sem fins lucrativos.»
