Abstract

This article aimed to realize a forest inventory with the incorporation of Geographic Information Systems. The study was carried out at the Santa Apolonia campus, Polytechnic Institute of Bragança, Bragança (IPB), Portugal. In addition of the inventory, it was realized recommendations and the spatial distribution of the individuals surveyed, and individually, the most common species. The use of Geographic Information Systems was a key tool to support the urban inventory accomplished. From the characteristics and spatial distribution can be realized the need to prepare an arborization plan for the area in the campus in study. Thus, measures related to the management of the species can be efficiently applied.
