abstract = "Biodiversity loss and climate impacts are major concerns due to
increased deforestation of Brazilian ecosystems. Nowadays, the use
of satellite imagery and remote sensing techniques along with a
Geographic Information System (GIS) are the best tools for mapping
and monitoring deforested areas. The objective of this study was
to map the deforestation polygons that occurred within the
S{\~a}o Francisco, Jequitinhonha and Pardo river basins, located
in the state of Minas Gerais - Brazil, during the agricultural
year of 2009/2010. To perform the detection of the deforested
areas, Landsat 5 TM images were acquired, processed and compared
monthly. In order to detect deforested areas we used the NDVI (The
Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) due to its computational
simplicity and well recognized sensitivity to the processes of
change in vegetation cover. The vegetation type most degraded was
the cerrado (Brazilian savanna), with 22,325 ha deforested,
especially in the S{\~a}o Francisco river basin. The results also
showed that the number of deforested areas is directly related to
the size of the basin, so that the basin that has the largest area
is the holder of the greatest number of deforestation polygons.
Another important find was the destruction of 78.03 ha of palm
swamps, since it is one of the most fragile vegetation types of
the Cerrado biome. They exhibit extreme importance to this biome
because they are responsible for regulating the flow of the
springs between the dry and rainy seasons.",
