Resumo:
Accidents related to exploration and oil transport are a threat to coast zones around the world. Oil spills are an ecological disaster that may cause irreparable damage to the environment. In the northeast cost of Pará state the intense flow of ships and rafts transporting petroleum and flowed, then the need to establish prevention strategies and administration of the environmental sensitivity about the oil spills in a certain part of Pará state northeast cost. The methodology consisted on processing digital images from remote sensors in the Landsat ETM+7 associated to data from the SRTM (shuttle radar topography mission) digital model of elevation, and to the field data collected in a GIS (geographical information system) environment. The most important results allowed: recognizing and describing five main geomorphological; identifying and classifying nine units of Environmental Sensitivity Rates (ISA) and creation of the Environmental Sensitivity Rates map to oil spill. The remote sensors techniques and SIG proved to be important tools for recognizing coast environments and for generating proposed maps.
