Abstract The environmental analysis is fundamental to recognize the potentialities and vulnerabilities of the region investigated. Based on satellite images, the study sought to analyze the use and occupation of the soil in municipalities that are part of the Bioceanic Highroad Crossing located in the State of Mato Grosso do Sul and that also have territories inserted in the Upper Paraguay Basin. It was found that on average 60% of the municipalities had part of their native vegetation replaced by monocultures and exotic pastures.
