| Sumario: | San Vito is the first district of Coto Brus municipality in Puntarenas province. Because of its political condition, it can’t develop a land-use plan. It is a region that constitutes a geographic sub-province with an urban core in a widespread rural environment (142 km2), that needs a substitutive instrument for land use decision-making. A useful and practical tool is land-use condition, which comes from the comparison between land-use capacity and current land-use. In turn, this work makes a methodological effort and includes the land units system that analyses the biophysical variables of the land, to define homogenous units that will be useful in land-use planning. |
