Abstract

Through this work we intend to show the particular characteristics of land registry’s databases in a digital format (both on a spatial and thematic basis) and how to prepare this coded & structured information, in the most convenient way, so as to permit its handling by a System of Geographical Information intended to allow an appropriate land management. In order to show the potential offered by this particular source of geographic information, we have used data referring to the town of Getafe, which is in the south of Madrid’s urban agglomeration, with the purpose of defining a methodology which allows us to identify the main types of basic units in the city.
