This paper discusses some aspects about the landscape concept and it contributions to understand the conceptual evolution of landscape according to geography and ecology. Respectively, these approaches, geographic and ecologic, emphasize the spatial analysis of landscape elements and the biological alteration and the ecological relations that are developed. Therefore, due to point view theorical and methodological, the Geoecology term has been rescued to integrate the geographic and ecological approaches. However, both approaches have used geotecnologies in identification and mapping of landscape units. Thus, it is possible to highlight that human appropriation of ecosystems is intense and transforming, therefore this factor must be considered in concept, structure and dynamic of landscapes.
