Abstract

The Integrated Territorial Plan of the river basin of the Eume River (PTI of the Eume)
contemplates between its objectives to protect the environment and to favor the economic
activity with criteria of sustainability An evaluation model based on the development by
the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in the 1976, A Framework for Land
Evaluation, was defined to assign to each territorial unit one of these 7 categories or
classes of land obtained from the classification of the 12 most relevant factors which
determine the aptitude of the soil in the Eume river basin. This cartographic classification
of the agroforestry aptitude, as well as being used as an indicator of the efficiency in the
use of soil, (comparing the dynamic cases of soil coverings reflected in cartographic series
such as the Spanish Land Use Information System (SIOSE)), was used to produce a
territorial model made up of three areas of integral management that will segment the
territory of the basin with the objective of "ad doc" regulation and regulation of the uses
and activities more in agreement with the aptitude of the soil in order to optimize the
efficiency of the use from a sustainable territorial perspective.
