REGIL-GARCIA, Héctor Hugo  e  FRANCO-MAASS, Sergio. Territorial suitability level for the development of farming and forest species in the Nevado de Toluca National Park. Econ. soc. territ [online]. 2009, vol.9, n.31, pp.803-830. ISSN 2448-6183.

The Nevado de Toluca National Park is an important reserve of natural resources in the State of Mexico. The recovering of forest ecosystems was established as an objective to determine appropriateness level for the development of native forest species and crops in the area. We present a methodology based on the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to evaluate some of the needs (i.e. climatic, physiographic, edaphic) of those species and to generate suitability criteria maps. This analysis provided an optimal occupation of the soil for four forest and two farming species.

Palavras-chave : territorial suitability level; geographic information systems (GIS); ecosystem recovery.
