La cartografía de los sistemas naturales como base geográfica para la planeación territorial: Una revisión de la bibliografía.

One of the central issues in the characterization and diagnosis stages in the different spatial planning schemes is the regionalization or territorial delimitation, necessary both for the evaluation of the suitability of the land - a step prior to (the) planning - and for the hazard and vulnerability zoning or to establish the geographic distribution of biota.
