abstract = "Trends of urbanization and cities growth in the Brazilian Amazon
are associated with economic activities that reflect the pressure
from international markets on trading of export products. Current
economic activities define the shape of the land cover, urban
sprawl and also how fast a city grows. Where land cover change and
local elite authors promote land commodification, it will also
cause urban space remodel, as consequence, altering urban
population density. This paper aims to study the evolution of
urbanized areas and the relationship with population growth, using
remote sensing data and geoinformation techniques to identify
variations in population density. Eight municipalities in the
southwestern of Para state were selected as study area:
Santar{\'e}m, Medicil{\^a}ndia, Uruar{\'a}, Placas,
Rur{\'o}polis, Aveiro, Belterra e Trair{\~a}o. TerraClass land
cover mapping for 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2014 were used to evaluate
the urban area class evolution, and IBGE census and estimated
population data was used for population counts of the same period.
Using GIS and geographical data base for the spatial analysis, we
calculate the urban demographic density of the municipalities. The
results were validated based on field work data, characterizing
urban sprawl by new urbanized allotments, housing estates,
condominiums and informal spontaneous occupation. It was observed
an unexpected general decrease of urban demographic density values
along these years: urban areas increased faster than urban
population. The resulted typology of urban population density for
Amazon municipalities provides information that will support
studies about underlying economic factors of the urbanization, and
further urban planning discussions.",
