• Resumen

  • For the author, SIG's are the child of a call in the Eighties of the last century for cartography to serve a series of public policy demands. They were designed to organize special geo- referenced data. They allowed for the user to set up interfaces, analyze spatial information, edit data and maps and communicate the outcome of such activities. Broadly speaking a distinction could be made between those for use by specialized users such as the Automatic Hydrological Information System or those intended more for another sort of access seeker and mainly for the citizen at large and here a case in point would be the SIG Catastral (National Land Survey). Autonomous Regional Governments have also set up their own Planning Information Diffusion (SIU) sites but, alas, not according to any common criterion and thus denying the user any overall view of the country as a whole. SIU was thus brought into being to offer a public and universal National SIG covering information on both Town and Country issues.
