Abstract

The studied area, the São Bernardo do Campo Municipal District, is an important area located in the São Paulo State, Brazil, and where are located great industries and important fountainhead that it forms the dam Billings, that is part of the Henry Borden Hydroelectric. The concern with the  disordered and irregular urban occupation in this area, took the municipal district city hall to look for alternative forms formonitoring and mapping of the area, because the traditional forms could not contain the illegal occupation. Thus, a land use monitoring methodology was developed, through Landsat 7 digital image processing, and the image classification with maximum likelihood algorithm. With this methodology the monitoring task is accomplished more quickness and with more precision, reducing the work and increasing the efficiency.
