Geo-processing in identifying and locating potential conflicts of land use in areas of permanent preservation of the Monte Belo watershed, Botucatu (SP, Brazil)

This work aimed to evaluate the potential of geo-processing in the identification and localization of potential conflicts of use over 1592ha in permanent preservation areas (APPs) of the Monte Belo watershed - Botucatu (SP, Brazil) (22° 45’ to 22° 48’ S and 48o 15’ to 48° 21’ W), through the use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and digital satellite images, bands 3, 4 and 5 of Sensor TM of LANDSAT 5, of the orbit 220, point 76, quadrant A, passage of 23/10/2006. The results allowed verification that 62.78% of the area is occupied with reforestation and 37.22% is forest, and that only 2.65% of the area has been used inadequately with reforestation.
