Geoecology and Geoinformation as a theoretical-methodological set of research and landscape planning in Contemporary Geography

Abstract

Geography, like all other sciences, is mutable, and this mutability has been occurring at an accelerated pace. Among the various fields that compose Geography, two stand out for their extreme importance and have been clearly consolidated in geographical analyses: Geoinformation and Geoecology. These areas gain prominence mainly due to the growing complexity of study objects and the emergence and consolidation of new technologies. Geoinformation and Geoecology assert themselves as protagonists in 21st-century geographical analyses, especially when considering the increasing complexity of space. Thus, the proposed work aims to understand two concepts: Geoecology and Geoinformation. These primarily geographical concepts can, together, serve as a basis for the study of the physical-geographical landscape, considering its analysis and planning. Therefore, this work aims to demonstrate how this integration becomes extremely relevant in current science and, especially, in contemporary geographical analysis.
