The area of the Savanna Ecomuseum Project covers 8.066 km², in the State of Goiás, close to the city of Brasilia. Seven counties constitute its total area. Through the interpretation of two Landsat5 TM data, the ecomuseum area has been classified as forests (19%), savanna (23%), and anthropic area (58%). By overlaying several maps of the region, it was possible to identify priority areas per county, for conservation of biological diversity. The total area of these priority sites covers a surface of 4.444 km², corresponding to 55% of the ecomuseum total area.
