Precision farming and livestock are topics of spatial nature, so commonly use the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) because they present themselves like excellent management tools. GIS allow management spatial data and its interconnection with alphanumeric attributes, performing complex analysis and the possibility to simulate various scenarios in order to provide an effective decision-making. Recent developments in internet technologies have contributed to access, publication, distribution and exploitation of geographic information. The use of the internet distributed GIS (WebGIS) using free software, can be a proper solution since GIS places accessible to user functionalities, through a simple browser, without the need for large investments in relation to software or even in specialized technical training . Therefore, this Master s Dissertation developed a WebGIS using free software that provides geographic and alphanumeric information layers that are under the responsibility of Embrapa South Livestock, allowing registered users to view and conducting research and spatial analysis operations.
