Government Land Rental / Purchase

Hello, I am looking to invest in a small plot of land approximately, but no bigger than 50 meters squared in Itatiaia-Rio de Janeiro, specifically on the summit of Pico das Agulhas Negras about 9,000 ft above sea level. I am from the USA and want to purchase a small patch of land there to set up some small weather monitoring devices (they do not use gas or electricity) which monitors humidity. I can't find any listings of land anywhere near there so I am assuming it is government owned and you need to apply for some sort of special permit or request. I was wondering how I would acquire this lot of land either through purchase or rental and where I would be able to find a real estate agent that can take care of this sort of request. Thank you very much in advance

We are one of the worlds largest manufacturers of revenue collection equipment for subway systems and buses. We have recently been chosen by a consortium in Rio de Janeiro to supply Vending Machines, Smart Card Readers, Access Gates, etc. Manufacturing is performed in the US. Considering Customs and Tariffs are relatively high (and passed on to our customer), it is our desire to attempt to minimze these costs to them. In many countries, there are exemptions based on performing some of the manufacturing in the host country. Is this true in Brazil. Is there any formulas for me to analyze this? Any possible organizations we can interface with? At this point we are trying to perform just a rough analysis, but will be seeking professional services soon.
