El deslinde, y el posterior amojonamiento, permite delimitar de forma exacta sobre el terreno la porción del territorio perteneciente a propietarios distintos; tal como los límites que definen una servidumbre señalan la zona en que un propietario tiene limitados sus derechos. En España, la ubicación de estas líneas de separación en muchos casos es confusa; sobre todo en zonas rústicas, en donde los linderos pocas veces están claramente materializados en el terreno, dando lugar a multitud de conflictos relacionados con los límites de propiedad. En cuanto a la legislación correspondiente a deslindes y servidumbres, ésta es muy diversa, y sobre todo dispersa, ya que dicha legislación la podemos encontrar en multitud de leyes y reglamentos, dependiendo de su tipo: aguas, costas, montes, vías pecuarias, hidrocarburos, ¿ ley de enjuiciamiento civil, código civil, etc. El fin de esta problemática se solucionaría plasmando gráficamente y de un modo exacto todas estas líneas de separación en un plano; para ello son fundamentales la cartografía y la topografía pues permiten dibujar de un modo inequívoco los límites entre propietarios y, sobre todo, entre el dominio público y el privado ; Surveys and markings of boundaries allow mapping the portion of territory belonging to different owners on terrain as the limits that define an easement mark the zone in which landlords have their rights restrained. In Spain the location of such lines of separation is, in most cases, hazy especially in country areas where boundaries are not very often marked on the terrain and provoke disputes with property limits. As far as legislation on surveys and easements of access is concerned, it is diverse and scattered since this body of laws can be found in different regulations and laws depending on their types: waters, shores, mountains, cattle tracks, hydrocarbons, civil procedure, civil code, etc. Such a problematical situation could be solved by plotting accurately these lines of fencing on a plane; to this purpose Cartography and ...

[EN] This article presents a study based on the outputs from the LUISA Territorial modelling platform (Joint Research Centre of the European Commission) focused on regional and local future projections of land abandonment between 2015 and 2030. Spain is taken as representative of one of the countries highly affected by agricultural land abandonment in the European Union. The most relevant factors driving land abandonment (biophysical, agroeconomics, farm structure and demographic) are described and mapped. Results from the analysis reveal that the Galicia region, northern Spain (Asturias, Cantabria, Gipuzkoa, Bizkaia), north-eastern Spain (Aragon region), central Pyrenees/Ebro basin (Huesca, Navarra, Lleida) and south-eastern Spain (Murcia, Almeria, Alicante, Malaga) are expected to undergo important abandonment processes. The study also concludes that land abandonment within mountainous, high nature value farmland and Natura 2000 areas is lower compared to the outside area without conservation and protection measures ; Perpiñá Castillo, C.; Coll-Aliaga, E.; Lavalle, C.; Martínez Llario, JC.

El sector ganadero se ha transformado en las últimas décadas por diversos motivos. Por un lado, se produjo un aumento de la demanda de alimento debido al crecimiento de la población, lo que propició, a su vez, cambios en las políticas agrarias europeas, para adaptar los sistemas de producción a la situación existente. Estos cambios provocaron que, a la larga, existiese un excedente de productos agropecuarios y que las actividades ganaderas dependieran en gran medida de las subvenciones y, por lo tanto, de las propias políticas agrarias. Por otro lado, existe una creciente preocupación sobre la conservación del medioambiente por parte de las administraciones públicas. Este hecho ha propiciado la creación de nuevas normas, con exigencias crecientes, orientadas al control y la prevención de la contaminación de la ganadería, considerada como una de las actividades más contaminantes. Todo esto, trae como consecuencia una necesidad de adaptación de las zonas ganaderas a las nuevas exigencias tanto medioambientales, como sectoriales y, por extensión, sociales. En este contexto, el objetivo de este estudio es conocer la situación de la distribución de la ganadería en la Comunidad Valenciana y la problemática asociada a las explotaciones ganaderas. Para ello, se ha estudiado, mediante la utilización de Sistemas de Información Geográfica y técnicas de Evaluación Multicriterio, las zonas ganaderas más problemáticas a partir del análisis de criterios sectoriales, medioambientales y sociales asociados a las mismas. En el criterio medioambiental se ha tenido en cuenta la distancia de las explotaciones con respecto a los núcleos de población cercanos, la distancia tanto entre explotaciones de la misma especie como de diferente especie y la calificación del suelo en la ubicación de la explotación. En el criterio medioambiental se ha analizado el riesgo de contaminación de las aguas subterráneas en caso de vertido accidental de residuos ganaderos. En el criterio social se ha evaluado la posibilidad de que las explotaciones ...

[EN] Numerous Communication, Education, Participation and Awareness (CEPA) efforts have been carried out by different authorities and conservation organizations in relation to the conservation of wetlands. However, the results are very modest compared to those obtained in other ecosystems. Wetlands are not yet appreciated by most of the general public, although they are common destinations for specialized eco-tourists (e.g. birdwatchers). This paper identifies and analyses the causes of this situation, which include the complexity of evidencing the wetlands¿ natural attractions and the existence of a negative perception of these ecosystems among certain sectors of the public. In addition, strategies are presented to address these issues and to establish a more personal connection between the public and heritage resources in order to appeal to the emotions of visitors. Therefore the following actions are proposed: acquiring an in-depth knowledge of the different audiences, identifying new wetland interpretive wildlife icons, enhancing the intangible heritage of wetlands, among others. The paper also describes techniques to positively influence visitors¿ on-site sensorial perception as this influences the satisfaction with the experience. This is because a good experience forms the basis of future attitudes and proactive behaviours in favour of conservation, preservation and the enjoyment of wetlands ; [ES] Se han llevado a cabo numerosos esfuerzos en materia de Comunicación, Educación, Concienciación y Participación (CECoP) desde diversas administraciones y organizaciones conservacionistas en relación a la conservación de los humedales, pero los resultados han sido discretos si se comparan con los obtenidos en otros ecosistemas. Los humedales no gozan todavía del aprecio de la mayoría del público generalista, aunque son destinos habituales para ecoturistas especializados (p.e. observadores de aves). Este trabajo identifica y analiza, por una parte, las causas de esta situación como son la complejidad de ...

The Monzón castle is a historical fortress located in the Huesca province in Aragón, Spain. A tower, which was constructed by the Moors during the 10th century, was expanded into the castle by the monarchs of Aragón in 1089. After 1143, the castle was inhabited by the Knights Templar. The soldier-monks transformed the castle into a convent with military Cistercian buildings that included walls, tower, stables, etc. The future King of Aragón, James I "the Conqueror", received his primary education at the castle. It was designated as a National Monument in 1949. Recently, the castle was included in the Spanish "Domus Templi" route along the Ebro River and the Mediterranean coast, which links the five magnificent Templar castles of Monzón, Gardeny, Miravet, Tortosa and Peñíscola. The master plan prepared to ensure the preservation of the Monzón castle includes proposals to enhance its potential for tourism. The present paper presents the key proposals for the tourism enhancement of the castle and its surroundings that were developed in the master plan. The proposals focus on the site's architectural heritage, surrounding landscape, and ethnographic elements as well as existing services, infrastructure and facilities. The results of this analysis provide information regarding the castle's potential as a tourist attraction and identify urgent issues that must be addressed if the site is to become a marketable tourism product. ; Morant González, M.; Alonso-Monasterio Fernandez, P.; Viñals Blasco, MJ.; Teruel Serrano, MD.

[EN] Solar energy generated by grid-connected photovoltaic (GCPV) systems is considered an important alternative electric energy source because of its clean energy production system, easy installation, and low operating and maintenance costs. This has led to it becoming more popular compared with other resources. However, finding optimal sites for the construction of solar farms is a complex task with many factors to be taken into account (environmental, social, legal and political, technical-economic, etc.), which classic site selection models do not address efficiently. There are few studies on the criteria that should be used when identifying sites for solar energy installations (large grid-connected photovoltaic systems which have more than 100 kWp of installed capacity). It is therefore essential to change the way site selection processes are approached and to seek new methodologies for location analysis. A geographic information system (GIS) is a tool which can provide an effective solution to this problem. Here, we combine legal, political, and environmental criteria, which include solar radiation intensity, local physical terrain, environment, and climate, as well as location criteria such as the distance from roads and the nearest power substations. Additionally, we use GIS data (time series of solar radiation, digital elevation models (DEM), land cover, and temperature) as further input parameters. Each individual site is assessed using a unique and cohesive approach to select the most appropriate locations for solar farm development in the Valencian Community, a Spanish region in the east of Spain. ; Guaita-Pradas, I.; Marqués Pérez, I.; Gallego Salguero, AC.; Segura García Del Río, B.

[EN] Beach management follows a homogeneous and rigid decision-making process that tries to fulfill expectations assumed from mass tourism without really getting to know the real users' perception. Decisions are usually taken without considering the diversity of values of the beaches, causing high environmental, economic and recreational impacts. In this study, users' profiles, expectations and perceptions have been defined on six Valencian beaches with both different degree of artificialization and sediment type. This has allowed a comparison between semi-natural and urban beaches, and between pebbly and sandy beaches. Differences between beach types have been observed, and a critical analysis of the current management framework and practices has been carried out. Therefore, decision-making should take greater account of users, and actions should be adapted to the diversity of beaches and their particularities, leading to a differential beach management. ; This study integrates findings and results obtained within the framework of the FPU15/04501 granted by the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sports to C. Cabezas-Rabadan, and by the funds of the research project RESETOCOAST (CGL2015-69906-R) supported by the Ministry of Economy, Industry and Competitiveness. ; Cabezas-Rabadán, C.; Rodilla, M.; Pardo Pascual, JE.; Herrera-Racionero, P.

Tour guides and heritage interpreters are central to the development of experiential tourism. This form of tourism aims at delivering memorable and personalised visitor experiences by developing activities that induce physical, emotional, spiritual and intellectual connections with a specific destination, its resources and its population. In this sense, thematic approaches to heritage interpretation allow heritage resource managers to clearly convey messages by promoting awareness and respect for heritage resources. Dimensions of competency related to heritage interpretation are explored in both formal and informal Spanish education systems. Significant learning methods are designed to achieve these dimensions of competency by allowing the student tour guide to serve the subject of an activity by dramatising interpretive content. This paper describes the experience of the degree programme in Tourism Management at the Polytechnic University of Valencia (Universitat Politnica de Valencia), which applies curricula that involve designing, producing and implementing dramatised tours. A critical assessment of this program is carried out to evaluate the experiences and academic progress of students and other individuals involved in the programs development. ; Teruel Serrano, MD.; Morant González, M.; Viñals Blasco, MJ.

[EN] The new European regulatory requirements incorporate territorial livestock planning as a key element to correct risks for the sector, for the nearby population and for the environment. The risk potential is high in areas with greater livestock density, and in addition, its detection is more complex. The objective of this study is to propose and validate a methodology to assess the risk of livestock farms, considering sectorial, social and environmental criteria. The methodology is based on the integration of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and multi-criteria tools. GIS is essential to obtain spatial data due to the location of the farms and to represent the results of the multicriteria analysis geographically. PROMETHEE, a multicriteria outranking method, has been applied to evaluate the risks of livestock farms, where the weights of different criteria have been obtained by using the AHP method from a group of experts. The method has also been applied to a region with areas of high cattle density with intensive production systems, composed of 4983 farms from the following species: cattle, horses, pigs, poultry, rabbits, sheep and goats. The region studied is the Valencian Community (VC) in the east of Spain. ; The authors acknowledge the support received from the Generalitat Valenciana through the research project "Sustainability of the Food Value Chain: From Production to Responsible Consumption" (Ref. AICO/2017/066), as well as the time and judgement from all experts involved in the survey carried out to elicit the weights of criteria. We also thank the two reviewers for their suggestions to improve the paper. ; Gallego Salguero, AC.; Calafat Marzal, MC.; Segura, M.; Quintanilla, I. (2019).

[EN] Quantifying the effect of location on land values can be done by designing a location factor which considers the most relevant aspects that may influence this value such as proximity to large cities, the population living around the parcel or land to be valued, the distance from it to markets or logistic centres, or the existence of places of environmental or landscape interest. Considering these variables can be complicated by having to process large amounts of distinct data (distances, no. of inhabitants or population size, protected areas, etc.), which have to be processed and interpreted to be able to define the factor that summarises them, and can affect the land value from income, such as productive assets, to correct its value. The main proposal put forward in this research is to study the various location aspects that affect land values, and the possibilities that Geographic Information Systems (GIS) offer to design with free software tools that allow simple calculations of a location correction factor and, consequently, land values. Calculations were made for all the rural cadastral parcels (2.3 million) in the Valencian Region. Results can be integrated into a new online GIS portal and make these available to users in soil valuation studies. ; Marqués Pérez, I.; Mora Navarro, JG.; Pérez-Salas Sagreras, JL.; Velilla-Torres, JM.; Femenia-Ribera, C.

[EN] Nowadays cartography is more and more required by users, companies and government agencies. A lot of tasks need digital, updated and quality cartography: Civil work design, planning, landscaping, environmental impact, conservation, etc. This need of cartography is mostly solved by spatial data infrastructures and map servers that make downloading and getting maps easy. Later, using Geographical Information Systems (GIS) it is quite easy to perform queries and geoprocessing operations in order to get valuable information which is difficult to get with other tools. However slivers polygons are a serious problem. They can alter the results in spatial analysis, queries and map portray. A map with sliver polygons is a map with false polygons and therefore with errors. We need to remove them. Removing sliver polygons is simple once they have been located. The real problem is to manage to locate them. Some sliver polygons are small, others are large but in both cases sliver polygons are difficult to locate and tell them apart from other polygons. Scientists have used formulas to calculate the shape of objects for many years. Today there are dozens of formulas available that could be used in the characterization and location of polygons slivers. In this article many of these shape formulas are analyzed and conclusions are drawn on whether they can be used in locating sliver polygons. ; [ES] Hoy en día la cartografía es cada vez más demandada por usuarios, empresas y agencias gubernamentales.
