"Utilização da técnica de sensoriamento remoto e do sistema de informações geográficas na delimitação das áreas de preservação permanente do município de Sapezal-MT".

Abstract

The objective of this study is to delimit Areas of Permanent Preservation (APPs) and its degradation rate of the municipe of Sapezal in the Mato Grosso state. These APPs will make possible the obedience of legal agreements, the development of economic activities according to the paradigm of sustainable development and the establishment of environmental liability that the municipality and its production units may be generating either because they are not preserving their permanent reserves or because of the use or degradation of these reserves. The influence of soil and its effect on the APPs was verified. Remote Sensorial Techniques and Geographic Information System for the Geotechnical Mapping were the tools used. The Mapping will permit the drawing of a Plan of APP Monitoring and Control, the Evaluation of the Assets and Liabilities of an APP and the necessary actions for the adjustment to these foundations. This will contribute to the environmental, economic and social sustainability of the community. The results were thematic mapping of the municipe of Sapezal-MT in the scales 1:200.000 and 1:50.000. The APPs correspond to 2,79 % of the municipe area and 1,17 % are degraded area inside the APPs.
