This study had as main objective to evaluate the states of erosion at the Córrego da Fazenda Glória watershed, Taquaritinga, São Paulo State. Remote sensing and GIS ttechniques had been used, in the approach scale of 1:30.000, to analyze the photos from the air survey carried through by BASE - Aerolevantamentos, from 1983 and 2000 years. The map analyses showed the predominant erosive aspect number 3: intensive sheet erosion areas, with common rill. Gully erosion had been seen in the area in the field works. An expressive increase in the erosive aspect 2 along the years instead of erosive aspect 1 was observed. This work will form the basis for implementing programs to preserve natural resources and conservation management in the watershed.
