Abstract
Urban spaces are characterized by ongoing complex and dynamic processes, which demand public management to develop a multiple and integrated perspective. This article aims to discuss municipal urban planning in public administration. Herein we adopt the Evidence-Based Planning (EBP) methodology, basing the analysis on government data geoprocessing. Given the above-mentioned objective, a bibliographic review and a cartographic production were carried out, which led to a compilation of the main EBP-based works undertaken in Aracaju-SE and their consequences to the city. We conclude the article by presenting a critical analysis of the methodology applicability at municipal level, highlighting positive aspects and main difficulties that might make its application unfeasible.
