Resumen
ARIAS OROZCO, Silvia; AVILA RAMIREZ, David Carlos y RIVERA BORRAYO, Elizabeth. The coastal landscape quality through Geographic Information Systems (GIS) towards a sustainable land management Bahía de Banderas and Puerto Vallarta, México. Estoa [online]. 2016, vol.5, n.8, pp.2-20. ISSN 1390-9274. https://doi.org/10.18537/est.v005.n008.02.
The approach in this study is the analysis of the Quality of the Landscape and the elements of Visual Fragility based on a process and assessment using Geographic Information Systems (GIS), enabling the analysis and implementation of a Sustainable Model of Landscape Intervention. The process is based on the optimization of the treatment and exploration of basic visual elements of the coastal landscape, with the goal of establish groundwork for identification of territorial impacts and possible measures for the conservation, restoration and minimizing changes on it. The object of the analysis were the main elements of the visual quality of the landscape, such as the watershed and its visual fragility and the landscaping capacity; and thereby determine the areas of greatest potential in the landscape, as well as identify the protection areas on the ecological environment in the Bahía de Banderas, México. From that point on it is possible to develop an Evaluation and Strategic Model for potential actions that include Sustainable Landscape Interventions; and recommendations for good practices in the territory occupation by the tourism sector and the activities that generates.
