Análise da cobertura florestal utilizando técnicas de sensoriamento remoto no reservatório da Usina Mourão no Município de Campo Mourão - PR

Abstract

The rapid and growing advancement in remote sensing techniques focused on the study of vegetation, has enabled various types of applications. Images of high resolution sensors, highlighting the orbital sensor Worldview-2 that besides having 0.50 m spatial resolution in panchromatic band presents spectral bands that increase the ability to breakdown and examination of the targets. Thus, this paper has as main objective Thus, this paper aims to compare the main areas of forest cover in the vessel Plant Mourao, and verify changes that may occur in the classification of satellite images WORLDVIEW-II and LANDSAT-5 TM obtained in 2011. The land use classification was performed using the method Maxver supervised. The image quality has proved of great importance for classification, especially in studies of verification processes sedimentation. The classification aftertreatment generates image segments of higher classes. Thus, this information helped analyze the situation of forest cover in the study region, providing support to the management of forest resources and environmental conservation.
