The evaluation of vegetal coverage, open spaces and green areas play a fundamental role for the planning and development of cities like Ponta Grossa.

In this sense, this thesis proposes to understand the open spaces, green areas and spatial dynamics of the vegetal coverage of the Ponta Grossa's urban area.To accomplish this, it recurs to bibliographical review, data generation and to identify both tipology and spatialization of green areas as well as to evaluate its availability to the public. The thesis classifies Ponta Grossa's vegetation and analysis its distribution along 2004. In this context, it quantifies open spaces and green areas per borough by means of geotechnologies. In the aforementioned year, Ponta Grossa had 172,59 km² of urban area and 266,683 habitants. In turn, vegetal coverage had 49% of the entire urban area and presented an index of 319,3 m²/habitant.
