RESUMO

This work presents the development of a tool to support the land management called Geographical Data Base (GDB) formed by a georrefered data base, a data base management system (DBMS), a geographic information system (GIS) and an artificial neural net simulator (ANNS). The methodological approach allowed the conceptual modelling of the methodology of the ZEE (Ecological-Economic Zoning) institutional program within GDB, using both field and object concepts, in which the geographic entities were modelled. Using this computacional framework both natural and socio-economic data were corrected and improved, and also procedures of satellite image interpretation using image processing techniques, of analysis and data manipulation using GIS tools, were accomplished. These procedures allowed to define basic units of mapping and to get the following synthesis for the study area located in State of Rondonia: social potenciality, environmental vulnerability, environmental sustentability, land management maps, and guidelines about land management. With the abiotic and biotic data, two different geographical inference methods were used to produce the environmental vulnerability map: a) the common Map Algebra approach and b) an Artificial Neural Network approach – as a technique to deal with the non-linearities involved in inferencial processes. Error matrices were computed from cross tabulation among different scenaries obtained from those inference methods. A good global accuracy (over 90%) was obtained when ANN and Map Algebra scenaries were compared. Medium global accuracies (around 60%) were obtained when ANN and Map Algebra were compared with scenaries obtained by manual procedures.
