Afforestation is an important element for the quality of urban environments, with an adequate floristic composition, the well-being of users, with regard to accessibility and environmental balance is preserved, in addition to promoting the appreciation of landscapes, which may come to become tourist spots in cities, also raising the issue of landscape. Given this, the aim is to survey the afforestation of squares in the city of São João do Piauí, in order to obtain data to verify the possibility of environmental and social impacts caused by plants inadequate to the studied scenario. For this, it was necessary to carefully analyze the structuring of these green areas, through the survey of data from all tree-sized plants in the squares and observe the characteristics of each sample, identifying the species to later assess the possible consequences, such as incompatibility with the electrical network, damage to sidewalks due to root growth and soil exposure caused by low vegetation cover.
