Análisis espacial de la fragmentación urbana basado en la destinación económica predominante por manzana en Bogotá D.C.

Abstract

Urban fragmentation is defined as the process of discontinuity of the functional structure of the territory, that is, the rupture of the city as a pre-existing unit. There are previous studies of a qualitative nature that address this urban process at a theoretical and sociological level; however, an index of fragmentation has not yet been characterized and quantified from a spatial analysis in a Colombian city, specifically its capital. This research seeks to fill this knowledge gap through the identification, characterization, quantification and specialization of this phenomenon that will support subsequent guidelines, actions and public policies for the control and monitoring of the problems resulting from fragmentation.
