TERRITORIAL ECOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION USING A MULTICRITERIA EVALUATION FOR THE MUNICIPALITY OF SAN ANDRES CHIAUTLA, MEXICO STATE. Rev.

A territorial ecological classification of the municipality of San Andres Chiautla was carried out in this research. The methodology employed was the one proposed by INE-SEMARNAP, which applies the variant from the complex systems associated with the SEDUE methodology. The physiographic survey variants were used to characterize the natural and socioeconomic subsystems through the GIS, while the reference terms for the transformations and permanencies of the use of the soil obtained from the State Program of Territorial Classification elaborated by SEDESOL were applied. Eight elements were characterized during the description phase of the natural and socioeconomic subsystems: ecological quality of the natural resources, natural fragility, changes in the use of the soil and vegetation, pressure placed on the natural environment by the local communities, population distribution, levels of well-being in the local communities, space and time dynamics in the local communities, and socioeconomic aspects. After the characterization stage, the integration of the natural subsystem to obtain environmental stability and environmental policies was carried out. As a final result, usage, policy and criteria tables to normalize the use of the territorial space were obtained.
