Cartography is a language for representation and understanding of reality. One of the cartographic products, thematic maps, are important elements of visual communication and present a set of signs immersed in meanings that represent reality. In view of this, this paper analyzed the feasibility of the QGIS software in the production of thematic maps, evaluating the effectiveness of these cartographic products as a subsidy for understanding the characteristics of the Boquira-BA Microregion. Demographic and economic data were collected from 1991, 2000 and 2010. Bibliographic research was carried out, followed by the production of maps and regional analysis, which led to the understanding of the micro-region.
