%X This paper reports the results ofusing space technology, namely remote sensing and data collection platfonns, to gather information on spatial and temporal variability in lhe Amazon Floodplain environrnent. Recent govemment policies caused an increased search for new ITontiers for soybean plantaIÍons. To asses.s the impact of those new developments into the Amazon floodplain.. since 2002 a project has been carried out in a floodplain lake, Curuai Lake, set near Santarém. Pará State. The fIrst step in the project was to use a series of Landsat- TM images to seasonally monitor water exchanges of the Terra Firme Rivers and Amazon River and the floodplain lakes. Based on this study a suitable site was selected t'J install an automatic monitoring system, which allows for quasi-conIinuous in sim measurements of a pool of atmospheric and aquatic variables. The collected data is sent through a satellite link to researchers. These data are submined to a series of analyses and stored in a database. As the program continues. there will be base line information against which environrnental impacts can be checked and enforcement undertaken to guarantee a sustainable development for the region.
