The clue to an environmental issue is not a conscious and complete task in territorial planning. In this sense, it is fundamental to apply the potential of land use and occupation, in order to prevent and mitigate the environmental problems of disorderly or inadequate occupation of land. The use of geomorphology as a basis for the analysis of metropolitans is in the stage of the planning of the planning of metropolitan building, by the date of the planning of the cities of the underground process by the county passes, to become a tool of importance fundamental for the establishment of action plans. The work is the first plan to choose environmental guidelines, there is no sense to guide and subsidize the development of plans and directors. For this, we use the Geomorphological Index as a subsidy to the urban occupation planning of areas of occupation in the municipality of Itabirito, Minas Gerais. %U http://www.mercator.ufc.br/mercator/article/view/e19003 %J Mercator %0 Journal Article %R 10.4215/rm2020.e19003 %V 19 %@ 1984-2201 %8 2019-12-08
