Vazios urbanos no município de Três Lagoas - MS: uma análise do bairro Colinos

Abstract

This study analyzes the distribution and characteristics of urban vacant lots in the Colinos neighborhood, located in Três Lagoas, Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil, considering the urbanization process intensified by the industrialization linked to the pulp and paper sector since the 1990s. Population growth driven by migration increased the demand for housing and urban infrastructure, contributing to transformations in urban space and to land appreciation. The research aims to identify, map, and categorize the urban vacant lots in the Colinos neighborhood, classifying them according to their typology and functionality, as well as relating them to real estate speculation and the production of urban space. To achieve this, methodological procedures included a literature review, analysis of secondary data from the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) and satellite imagery, the use of geoprocessing tools in ArcGIS, and fieldwork to survey and document the identified areas.
