Planning of public green areas: Case study the municipality Aracaju, Sergipe

Urban green areas can be defined as a set of open spaces associated with vegetation and perform a number of environmental, social and aesthetic functions within the urban environment. This set can be defined as a system, therefore, management is required that will require the planner/manager to organise a series of information that will assist in decision-making. The systematisation of the information necessary for management should begin with the identification, classification, characterisation and quantification of available and existing spaces. When the analysis is carried out in this way, it is possible to identify the weaknesses and potential of each category of green space, allowing for the establishment of more specific strategies to improve the quality of the city's green areas.
