Consolidación y análisis de las herramientas de planeación adoptadas de las áreas protegidas de Parques Nacionales Naturales de Colombia con enfoque en los valores objeto de conservación y su distribución en el territorio nacional

Abstract

In this internship the consolidation and analysis of the main variables of conservation planning and management in the protected areas of the System of National Natural Parks of Colombia were carried out, having as main axis the Conservation Object Values and their distribution in the national territory. In order to achieve this, the updated and adopted management plans of twenty-two protected areas and their respective attachments were reviewed, and the main biological and planning variables were subsequently consolidated into a matrix for internal use by the entity. Additionally, for the purpose of organization and analysis, the Conservation Object Values were classified into four filters, obtaining a global classification at the national level (VOCN) and thus obtaining their location and distribution around the country. It was found that the species of local importance, the humid forest, the paramo and the values related to watersheds are those that have the greatest presence in protected areas that have an adopted management plan at the time of the internship and that these should be the object of priority conservation actions. As a pilot proposal for the union of knowledge between the Planning and Management and the of Information Systems and Radiocommunications Groups and with the purpose of capturing the consolidated information, the geographic information tool StoryMaps with three protected areas was socialized to the staff in charge of the entity, for its application to the other National Natural Parks with adopted management plans.
