Resumo
This project is a study of the eco-system of the city of Goiânia (Goiás). Goiânia’s
first Directive Plan was created according to the Garden City of Howard, one of the most
important urban conceptions in the word. Using this plan and its urbanist evolution, one has tried
to make a preliminary identification of the social agents, which produced the urban spaces of
Goiânia.
A classification and qualification of the open spaces and “green areas” of the city
has been made. The quantity of vegetation (m².inhab.-1
) and its quality (typing), when distributed
adequately is important to the preservation of the urban eco-system, having important
environmental effects on the quality of life of the population. The “green area” rate (Índice de
Área Verde – IAV) is, therefore, one of the indicators of urban development.
Changes in the open spaces, as indicators of IAV, in relation with changes in
demographic density, indicative of human presence in the environment, have allowed the
prevision of the amount of “green area” per urban inhabitant. The IAV calculated for Goiânia is
100,25 m². inhab.-1
, having suffered a per capita reduction of 17,68% in relation to the IAV
established in the original city plan in 1938. In the next fifteen years it is possible forecast that the
IAV will be 54,4% smaller than it is at the moment, decreasing to 45,71 m².inhab.-1
, if the
privatization policy regarding publics spaces should persist.
The “green areas” are unalienable and imprescriptible public property destined for
common use. In spite of this, these areas have been decreasing over the years. The degree of
deterioration of public assets has been calculated and constitutes a factor in the decay in urban life
quality. The adoption of a programme to register and monitor the environmental assets of Goiânia
is suggested, among other measures.
