Accidents related to exploration and oil transport are a threat to coast zones araund the world. Oil spills are an ecological disaster that may cause irreparable damage to the environment affecting living beings that live in these coast zones and also the local economy. Characterizing coast environments is very complex because of the many limiting factors during the mapping process. When it comes to humid tropical environment, like in Pará northeast coast, it gets worse because this area is typically dominated by macro tide. First of all, the macro tide plain creates low areas where informations about the relief are, most of times, scarce and the plain metric representation is dominant. Secondly, the tide variations with its vertical and horizontal moving produces strong changes on the sediment coast environment limits. Thirdly, the geomorphological modifications in the coast areas are intense and fast. Towards this context, the objective of this master’s degree dissertation is to create a map of the coast environment and a rating map of the environmental sensitivity about the oil spills in a certain part of Pará state northeast coast. The methodology consisted on processing digital images from remote sensors in the range of optical (Landsat ETM +7) and microwave (RADARSAT–1 Wide-1) associated to data from the SRTM (shuttle radar topographic mission) digital model of elevation, and to the field data collected in SIG (geographical information system) environment, providing an integrated analysis of the spectral, geomorphological, altimetrical and sedimentological characteristics of the coastal environments in cartographic georeferenced bases. The most important results of this dissertation allowed: 1) The evaluation of the potential of the images Landsat ETM +7, RADARSAT-1 and of the multi sensors fusion products used for identifying the coastal environment and the Environment Sensitivity Rates (ISA) of oil spills in this areas 2) Recognizing and describing five main morphological unities and fourteen sub unities: Coastal Plateau, Tide Plain, Coastal Plain and Alluvial Plain 3) Identifying and classifying eight unities of Environmental Sensitivity Rates (ISA) for the Amazon coast zone which are: ISA 1B – support wall; ISA 3B – exposed scarps with declivity to the sand; ISA 9B – sand bank and plains of tidal vegetable mudflats; ISA 9C – hypersalt herbaceous fields, ISA 10A – salt and salobre herbaceous fields; ISA10C – Mangrove; ISA 10D – Lea; 5) creation of the Environmental Sensitivity Rates map to oil spill of the studied area. The using of remote sensors techniques and SIG proved to be an important tool for recognizing and analyzing coast environments and for generating maps to coast environments and to environmental sensitivity rates to oil spills in the northeast coast of Pará.
