Generación de insumos cartográficos, restitución fotogramétrica y cartografía básica a escala 1:1000 del área urbana del municipio San José de Cúcuta

Abstract

Generating cartographic information is a strategic component of territorial planning, as it provides precise, up to date data that supports decision making regarding infrastructure, land use planning, and risk management. Updating base mapping through photogrammetric restitution techniques and producing 1:1000 scale cartographic data allows for a more accurate representation of the physical and functional transformations of urban space. In this context, updating the mapping for the municipality of San Jose de Cucuta addresses the need to overcome the obsolescence of existing information and to record changes linked to urban growth, real estate dynamics, and land-use modifications. The information obtained strengthens multipurpose cadastre processes and provides technical support for formulating projects in road infrastructure, education, health, and urban development. Furthermore, it facilitates public resource management by improving asset identification and tax administration, thereby contributing to more efficient and sustainable territorial planning. Consequently, updating the mapping not only improves the quality of geospatial information but also strengthens institutional capacity to design public policies aimed at territorial development, strategic investment, and community well being
