- Abstract
Urban sprawl in underdeveloped countries can become a catastrophic problem when it occurs on environmentally unstable ground. Urban geomorphology is the science that studies the urban sites due to the bias of the relief features and its interrelations with other components of the landscape, such as climate, meteorology, geology, vegetation and use and occupation. Based on the geo-environmental design of the urban landscape using geoprocessing, remote sensing and empirical analysis, this research aims to portray the geomorphological interface of the Areia-PB urban site and, specifically, to identify landscapes of urban risk through the geosystemic matrix. As a result, there are areas with irregular occupation and fragile constructions on steep terrain. It is plausible that this research will direct and enable others, which will deepen the surveys of the problems of territorial planning of the urban site of Areia and can subsidize urban public policies.
