The present study aimed to analyze the forms of land use and occupation in the Igarapé Cachorro watershed area and correlate them with the physiography. The methodological procedures were: bibliographic, cartographic, remote sensor survey and field research aiming to verify and characterize the geomorphological compartments types of the Igarapé Cachorro Watershed and identify the use of the Earth.
