Abstract

A study based on geotechnology was carried out to ensure the quality of life and preservation of natural resources in the municipality of Muqui, comprising an area of 327.75 km 2, located in the extreme south of Espirito Santo state, Brazil (20° 50', 21° 01' S; 41° 12', 41° 28' W). The study aimed to define Permanent Preservation Areas (PPA) from the viewpoint of the environmental legislation in force in the municipality; classify land use and occupation; identify and analyze conflict areas; and verify the state of degradation, highlighting the importance of identifying areas in order to automatically deploy projects that could efficiently promote environmental actions in pursuit of a sustainable relationship between humans and the environment.
