Abstract

Soy has contributed significantly and strategically to the development of Brazil, being responsible for the
implementation of commercial agriculture in the country. Therefore, monitoring the crop, involving remote
sensing techniques, contributes to the decision-making process for maximizing production. The present
study aimed to discriminate and map soybean areas in the municipalities of Mateiros/TO and Formosa do
Rio Preto/BA using geotechnologies through digital image classification by the Maximum Likelihood method
(MaxVer) in the 2017/2018 harvest, using images from the Landsat-8 satellite. The mapping demonstrated
to be above the mapping index, which relates the thematic map produced to the field truth. The image used
from the Landsat-8 satellite proved to be satisfactory, and the results are consistent with the consulted
literature. The municipality of Formosa do Rio Preto showed grain production values that demonstrated its
significance in the regional and national scenario.
