The creation, management and implementation of Protected areas is a key strategy for territorial planning. However, the implementation of legally protected territories generates socioeconomic conflicts, which often are larger and more difficult to be solved that own environmental problems. To overcome the obstacles that arise in this process, it is necessary to use the modern tools of information and communication technology, such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS), which, from remote sensing products and GIS techniques, enable assist the actions of planning, management and monitoring Protected Areas in a most practical, agile and dynamic way. In this context, this study aimed to analyze the applicability of GIS use as an aid to planning and environmental management in Full Protection Conservation Units. Thus, we used the bibliographical and documentary research, interviews with semi-structured guide and field research. In preparation and organization of digital maps were used QuantumGIS and Global Mapper softwares. With results, it was found that Sergipe has a good georeferenced database, but lacks data consistency and constant updating. In addition, scarcity of professionals employed in direct actions of management and monitoring of Protected Areas in the state, weakens environmental protection objectives, due to anthropic pressures. It was concluded that use of a digital atlas provides an important source of information for preparation of environmental planning and monitoring, and streamlining human resources, but the lack of trained professionals, acquisition costs of remote sensing products and unreliable biophysical information become obstacles to be overcome.
