Abstract:
The main purpose of this study is to analyze the physiographic and morphological
characteristics of the Ipojuca River Basin - PE. The objective of this work is to analyze the
physiography and morphology of the Hydrographic Basin (BHR-IP) of the Ipojuca River, to
consolidate a database referring to BHR-IP with the use of computational tools for remote
sensing and modeling in Geographic Information System (GIS). For the handling of
morphometric and physiographic data, QGIS Software version 2.18 was used. The
hydrographic basin of that river has a total area of approximately 3420.20 km2 with a
perimeter of 1002.25 km, occupying 3.49% of the area of the state of Pernambuco. The basin
has an elongated shape, a medium degree related to erosion processes, a wavy relief and a
predominant average amplitude.
