Con el cambio de siglo, la temática de riesgos adquirió relevancia en la agenda política internacional y nacional al momento de planificar y gestionar el territorio con miras a mejorar las condiciones de vida de la población. El enfoque geográfico en el análisis de riesgos evidencia las desigualdades socioespaciales y presenta herramientas teórico-metodológicas para su abordaje, que permiten comprender los fenómenos de origen natural y antropogénico y, al mismo tiempo, presenta utilidad empírica para enfrentar consecuencias adversas. El trabajo se focaliza en el estudio de la dimensión espacial del riesgo a inundaciones en la ciudad de Luján (Buenos Aires, Argentina), en cuanto a su situación actual y perspectivas futuras, a través del análisis espacial con Sistemas de Información Geográfica. Se presenta como resultado una cartografía de riesgo, que permite identificar de forma concreta cuatro áreas prioritarias de planificación urbana, con los niveles de riesgo más elevados y una tendencia a expandirse sobre áreas con amenaza de inundación. Los resultados obtenidos se convierten en una herramienta fundamental en apoyo para la toma de decisiones espaciales en sectores específicos del área de estudio.
