| Abstract | |
The Geoecology of the Landscapes considers the landscape as a "total system", in which natural and anthropic objects are integrated. In this approach, the Geoenvironmental Units Map emerges as a cartographic synthesis document which aims the integrated analysis of the natural and human components of the landscape. The objective of this study is to discuss and analyze the city of Praia Grande (SP) through the results registered in the Geoenvironmental Units Map, elaborated in 1:50.000 scale, through the adaptation of the methodological proposal by Mateo Rodriguez, Silva and Cavalcanti (2004). This map shows which areas to the city present more natural fragility, due to their physical characteristics and the type of land use in the interior of these units. This map can contribute to urban and environmental planning in coastal areas, aiming to a better occupation of this space, taking into consideration the natural fragilities of the area and the preservation of environmental systems of great importance.
