The cangahua, important component of the Ecuadorian highlands landscape presents a very weak fertility. This is the result of old-fashioned and inadequate management by the indigenous populations, whose food needs exceed agricultural supplies. It was interesting to evaluate a dynamic process such as the extension of the cangahua with remote sensing from images SPOT as the cangahua mineral material presented a typic spectral response in the 3 main hands. Two experiences are presented: the first dealt with a spatialization of the cangahua on two 10-years periods (1986-1995), on the slopes of the volcano Ilalo, close to Quito, in awell-known and small region (15 sq km). The second compared a conventional field mapping to a satellite mapping of the whole new volcwnic highlands (5 scenes of 60 sq km). The method leant on the definition of themes, the identification of these on well-known areas (trainig samples), the definition of spectral characteristics of the training samples and the extrapolation to the wholw region (classification) in order to minimize geometrical distortions, angular incidence and atmospheric conditions. The first study emphasized the increase of cangahua areas in relation with the settlement, the travelling of men and cattle; the theme of discontinous cangahua with a broad spectral signature expalined a process still dynamic nowadays. The comparison of the 2 mappings showed a convergence for the typic cangahua but the results differed for the disconrinuous one. Remopte-sensing is an efficient tool for mapping cangahua. However it requieres a good knowledge of the field and improvement and automation of the various distorsions. (Résumé d'auteur).
