According to the Estatuto da Cidade (Federal Law No. 10,257/01), municipalities with more than 20,000 inhabitants must have their growth regulated by the Master Plan, which establishes physical order, planning of the city and directs investment priorities. The image of the city is the result of the master plan, showing the importance of planning tools. However, it come as laws, texts, decrees, and other written ways, which sometimes become difficult to communicate. The present moment of the computational technology allows the elaboration of a set of systems that help the planning activities and understanding of the phenomena of the cities physical growth. This study intends to organize data related to urban planning legislation and show them through virtual simulators. Users are able to verify and understand the application of regulatory plans, how the restrictions and permissions to the buildings work, and to visualize the application of these rules in a terrain and / or urban clipping in parametric form. Municipalities and planners, AEC professionals and the population can use the products elaborated from this research in general, as well as teaching / learning tools in architecture and urban planning courses, civil engineering among others in this area.

Ethical Guidelines for Journal Publication
The Ciência e Natura journal is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles.
Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.
In particular,
Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review Articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The Authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding Author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all Co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.
Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An Editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the Author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that Authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected Reviewer who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the Editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
