It is very common for nature to experience considerable losses in its vegetation due to growth and expansion of urban areas, giving way to houses, commerce, industries, roads, vehicles, etc. Furthermore, the lack of appropriate planning during the foundation of new urban areas may cause problems, such as bad distribution of the urban framework, areas devoid of urban equipment, disorganized growth, and so on. Additionally, one more problem that normally takes place the implantation of neighborhoods with few or no trees, thus causing an elevated apparent temperature, aside from negatively affecting the visual aesthetics of the city or town. Therefore, the present study presents a planning and management model for adding trees into the urban areas by using geotechnology. For a case study, we analyzed the area occupied by the UFMT campus in the municipality of Sinop. We mapped 931 trees of 27 species. With this survey, we carried out quantitative and qualitative analyses of the trees present in the area, with themed maps that helped visualize the results. It is important to stress that all the results found in this study will be submitted to the campus managers, so as to contribute with current and future tree management efforts in the area.
