ABSTRACT
The use of remote sensing
in the design of land use mapping allows analyses of landscape evolution during
a certain period of time which helps studies in a global scope. The objective
of this study is to identify and analyze changes in characteristics of rural
land use in the municipality of Passo Fundo, located in the state of Rio Grande
do Sul, Brazil, during the years 2001 and 2020, through images taken from the
Landsat TM-7 and TM-8 satellites. Methodologically, satellite images were
classified by supervised methods, generating thematic maps, and taking into
account the following groups: tillage (growing area), forest, exposed soil and
water resources. Results demonstrated that the process of connecting
agricultural crop patches went from 5.495 in 2001 to a figure of 10.812 in
2020, thus having an increase of 96%.
