  ABSTRACT: In order to protect and sustainably manage the forest in Madagascar, which is currently one of the countries still covered by forests, it is essential to use technological advances, particularly with regard to remote sensing. It provides valuable data, and sometimes free with a wide range of spatial, spectral and temporal resolutions to meet the demands for information on forest resources that are increasingly numerous and requires ever increasing levels of accuracy. The present work presents a methodology for the analysis of forest dynamics in the Antanambe area for the period 2005-2016 for monitoring forest degradation in this forest area to be conserved. The Random Forest algorithm was used to classify a Sentinel 2 image collected on November 07, 2016 and compare with a classification result with LandSat 5 in 2005 to detect change. The per-pixel change detection of both results captured the change map to better interpret the situation.
