Contribución del Catastro de Redes Subterráneas en la Gestión del Suelo Urbano de Bogotá. Análisis de los Últimos Cinco Años.

Abstract

This document analyzes the progress and contributions of the cadastre of subway networks and structures in the city of Bogota, in consideration of the project for the cadastre of utility networks implemented by the district in Bogota during the last five years. This cadastre has been built as a comprehensive inventory of utility networks located underground in the city. For this purpose, information from the District Development Plans (PDD) 2020-2024 and 2024-2027 was used, as well as documentation from the worktables carried out by various district entities associated with the project. With the objective of highlighting the importance of the subsoil for urban functioning, to evaluate opportunities for its sustainable use in the context of the city's needs. The methodology used for the development of this work was based on 3 phases: - Initial phase consisted of observation, based on a bibliographic study of urbanistic antecedents that led to a limited knowledge of the infrastructure installed in the subsoil. - Second phase, the progress of the implementation process of this project by the different entities of the district was documented. - Third phase, an evaluation of subsoil planning instruments was carried out to identify opportunities for sustainable use. This was done to diagnose the progress and impact of the cadastre of subway networks and structures in Bogota in the last five years. A brief review of the urban policies that have structured the city of Bogota was also made. Throughout the document we reflected on the dynamics of reconstruction and permanent adaptation of the city to the urbanized. As a result, a matrix was constructed in which indicators that allow relating the urban patterns that have affected the knowledge and use of the subsoil are evidenced. This research allows evaluating the potential of the subsoil as a resource for urban planning, considering the geological context of the city. Policies implemented in other countries in reference to subsoil management were reviewed. To identify opportunities for urban land use, including the concept of subsoil disposal works as a land management tool. The subsoil planning documents were reviewed to identify opportunities for sustainable use.
