Popis: The morphological characterization of the watersheds provides a rapid evaluation of the sources and their respective potentials of degradation. Thus, this work aimed to make a morphological characterization of the basins inserted in the municipality of Rio Verde, Goiás, as a planning tool and urban and agricultural. Drainage area, perimeter, main bed length, compactness coefficient, deformation index, deformation index, drainage density, drainage network density, watercourse slope, order Stream, circularity index and concentration time. As the basins located in the urban area of Rio Verde and in the district of Ouroana have a medium tendency to hypotheses under normal conditions of precipitation, in a way that developed in an analysis of the growth and development of the city. However, as basins with greater potential to large floods were like circular form being a greater part of these occupied by agricultural areas, which can compromise a local economy. As other basins showed a lower propensity to floods. As morphometric variables will serve for future planning and regional environmental management, as well as for predicting floods in urban and agricultural areas.
