This paper sought to perform a spatio-temporal analysis of the bibliographic production of articles published in the journal Geografia between the years 1976 and 2019 (44 years). The aim was to generate subsidies to assess the dynamics and frequency of scientific production in Geography by thematic areas in order to verify the spatial distribution and the origin of the knowledge produced at the national and regional level. For that, the complete collection of the journal was used as a basis for reading and empirical evaluation of the articles, distributed by areas of research in Geography and in the institutional origin of the authors. Thus, graphs and maps of distribution and intensity were created to support the analysis of the academic production of the journal. The results showed the regularity and frequency of the various themes in the area of Physical and Human Geography addressed over time and the intense spatial heterogeneity of scientific production, mostly originating from institutions located in the main cities of central-south Brazil.
