Abstract

The theme of soil use and occupation become from the need for territorial planning, and it is key piece to urban planning of cities. Therefore, zoning is used as an instrument for regulating spaces, aiming at the fair disciplining of the counties’ areas. Based on this, the main objective of this work is to evaluate the soil use and occupation of the Fatima neighborhood in Fortaleza – CE, therefore, it was evaluated the considerations on the subject, within the “Fortaleza Master Plan”, in parallel with the conjuncture observed in the neighborhood, and the reasons that led the neighborhood to go through this growing process of verticalization. It was identified with the analysis results that have occurred in the last years, including those that made the selection action on the subject of the susceptibility to floods, inciting a generation of proposals for an improvement of the use and occupation of the soil for a region, based on all the methodology applied in this work. In order to carry out this evaluation, a documentary analysis of the current legislation pertinent to the theme was made in comparison with the subsequent ones, and the evaluation of aero photogrammetric resources, in an attempt to ratify the verticalization scenario and to identify possible impacts. It was noticed that public policies on the issue were insufficient regarding city planning, and consequently the neighborhood, where signs of possible impacts brought by verticalization were identified, in line with what was presented in the flood susceptibility map. Finally, it was decided on the measures proposed to improve this situation, using the proposals related to the Fortaleza’s Plan 2040, in which it discerned the use of classifications regarding floodable areas in the Zoning criteria, besides proposing the insertion of the parameters regarding the use and occupation in an incisive way, aiming at improving the urban context to which the neighborhood is inserted.
