For the protection of Amazon forest remnants, it is fundamental to know how the processes of forest exploitation occur. In this sense, it is necessary to formulate methodologies that aim at the optimization and accuracy of the mappings related to the selective cutting of forest individuals for commercial purposes. Thus, this work presents the results obtained through the application of the mapping methodology developed in DETEX project, allied to geotechnology and geostatistical methods, aiming at the identification of forest exploitation patterns related to wood selective cutting in COOMFLONA of 2013, 2014 and 2015. According to the results, logging began in 2013 with the installation of storage and infrastructure yards in the north of the area, demonstrating that the applied technique was effective in mapping the area''''''''s exploration dynamics. Subsequently, the infrastructure was installed towards the south of the area, followed by exploration. Finally, in 2015 one can see that the exploration activities were concentrated in the south of the area. During the analyzed period, results related to the spatial autocorrelation values of the Moran Local Index, as well as the surface map of forest exploitation density by interpolation by the Kernel method, showed an intense dynamics related to the implantation of storage yards and road infrastructure of forest exploitation.
