Trying as "variables” all physical, economical and juridical circunstances, this continuous of information in transformed in an extraordinary and interesting product, which can be potentiate if we include the Geographic Information System (GIS) concept, resulting of adding digital cartographic data bases to attributes and literal characteristics of elements stored in alphanumeric ones. The reason of this article is to divulge the Territorial Information System set up in the Cadastral Office of the City Hall of Montevideo, based on GIS technology, emphatizying the utility it produces in so large applications as: to investigate land occupation and property distribution, to planify and optimize resources and services, to act as a fundamental support to elaborate thematic cartographies, to serve as a detailed and precise support for urbanism, service flows and territorial ordenation and all other products issued for the own implantation philosofy, constituted with an open structure where the mentioned Office isn’t the only user. |
