Remote sensing techniques allow the distinction and categorization of objects in the physical and spatial point of view. The objective of this research is to quantify the land use change and land cover in the municipality of Recife-PE by unsupervised classification in multi-temporal images of the satellite Landsat 5. Was used eight images sensor Thematic Mapper (TM), Orbit and point 214/65-66 aboard the Landsat 5 satellite, obtained from National Institute for Space Research (INPE) with dates of passage on May 9, 1987, September 28, 1989, June 14, 1991, 8 September 2005, August 26, 2006, July 28, 2007, September 6, 2010 and September 25, 2011. The images were recorded, orthorectified and underwent deletion of shadow and cloud . Soon after they passed radiometric calibration and computation of reflectance. Among the main results can be cited decreased vegetation cover and consolidation of the urban area as well as the preservation of large plant fragments, like the Matas da Várzea, Curado, Barro, Jardim Uchôa e Dois Irmãos. Become important to the maintenance and preservation of the remaining vegetated areas, especially in more densely populated areas of the city of Recife. Keywords: ISODATA, LANDSAT, population growth INTRODUCTION Currently the studies of land use and land cover influence on the type and condition of terrestrial vegetation, but at the same time may be affected has gained great prominence in several surveys as conducted by the world.

The Landsat satellite mode operation enables to of these targets with the values of other targets acquire satellite imagery of much of the earth's observed in Recife, preventing an erroneous surface, and it is possible to obtain images from interpretation of the results in several indices, different times which allows the realization of such as vegetation index and surface temperature. multi-temporal research and the use change Thus, after classification, the clouds values and monitoring and coverage solo around the world. cloud shadow had the same value throughout the image, making it possible to exclude them in each 3.

Each index generated at the end of the process was mosaic into a image. utilizanda the methodology proposed by Allen et al.

For the thermal band, this is the radiance radiation emitted by each pixel and is used to obtain surface temperature. The radiance of each pixel, and the band was obtained by the equation proposed by Markham and Baker (1987): between the average distance earth - sun (ro) and the Earth-Sun distance (r) at a given day of the year (DSA). 5. Classification of land use and cover in the city of Recife In view of the need to better observe the changes spatiotemporal of use and land cover and perform the quantification of each class, the TM images used, it was decided to hold a unsupervised classification for the spatial area of the municipality.

Because of the high incidence of cloud cover in the areas that comprise the RPA 3, 4 and 5, was preferable not to use the values obtained for the same. However, through Table 4, it is noted that the vegetated areas have been decreasing in this RPA, especially in the RPA 2, while the urban area was densifying each year. Thus for RPA 6 it can be seen that in 1987, the vegetation occupied about 27.68% of total area of RPA and in 2011 began to occupy just over 21%. Figure 13.
