Diseño y Análisis Espacial de una Red de Infraestructura Verde para la Localidad Rafael Uribe Uribe

Abstract

It is important both for the population and for the environment, to have spaces within the city where there is a balance between gray infrastructure and the so-called green infrastructure, this balance is currently not in the city of Bogotá. For this work the Rafael Uribe Uribe locality was chosen as it is one of the smallest localities, but one of the most densely populated and with less green areas within the city (Secretaría Distrital de Cultura Recreación y Deportes, 2008). The need to conduct a search for information that would allow to see how the process of planning green infrastructure within the locality was seen. In this work, a methodology was applied for the design of green infrastructure that can be implemented not only within the locality but also in the entire city. In this methodology, four components were established (water, protection areas, green and recreational spaces, non-motorized mobility) that make it easier to understand and implement it. Each of the components was addressed by studying the risks that can be had without the presence of each of these, a diagnosis of the existing green elements, and from this, a design of new elements that can serve to have a greater coverage of green infrastructure, and evaluating at the end if this methodology works and that contributes to the locality
