Análise multitemporal do desenvolvimento da mancha urbana do município de Conselheiro Lafaiete - MG de 1986, 1996 e 2016

Abstract

Living without technology in the 21st century is almost unimaginable, since the available technologies have allowed us to reach beyond what we have imagined and been used by the masses, but especially brought us good results by scholars, managers, planners of the urban, territorial, rural, and social environment as a day-to-day instrument or as fundamental tools of the work, with available and free resources as is the case of carrying out this work. No Municipality will be able to achieve sustainable development if it does not have accurate, up-to-date information on the nature, urban and economic development of the quantity and geographical distribution of its natural resources and the wealth produced by its population. For this, urban studies are required with a careful analysis with regard to urban development. The use of Remote Sensing as an efficient tool for the analysis and identification of variables that allow us to make a decision. This type of data contributes to the development of a series of studies that can be done with data, processing tools, free and free software available to the entire population. The multitemporal analysis that we will apply of the phenomena of the urban spot of the municipality of Conselheiro Lafaiete-MG are LandSat Thematic Mapper images free of charge. To follow the expansion of the urbanized areas and to evaluate the structure of this growth with the obtaining of images obtained by passages of the satellite over 30 years, and later analyzed by techniques of geoprocessing provided portraits for comprehensible comparatives. Urban studies in metropolitan areas require a general analysis regarding the expansion of urbanization, the trend of growth and identification of priority areas for more detailed investigations. The present work seeks to make a spatial analysis of the growth of the urban spot of the Municipality of Conselheiro Lafaiete, metropolitan microregion of Belo Horizonte, and the trend of development for the coming years. The purpose is to from the spatial analysis and identification of the results the public management can have a decision-making to the basic principle of a structured urban planning, growth trends for the coming years with the technological tools available. Which are of paramount importance for full development.
