Evaluación del potencial edáfico de la zona de amortiguación para la conservación ambiental mediante análisis multiespacial en el páramo de Bijagual del municipio de Tota, Boyacá.

Abstract

The assessment of soil potential in the buffer zone for conservation using Landsat satellite images in the municipality of Tota, Boyacá, represents an analysis of land use characterization. This is reflected in recommendations for environmental conservation in the study area. The analysis is carried out in a documented manner by collecting information from articles, undergraduate research papers, among others. This information is then applied using the ArcGIS Pro computational tool developed by the Maximum Likelihood Classification with supervised verification and the analysis of the Logical Framework methodology, which takes into account the stakeholders involved in the buffer zone. Likewise, the importance of having good information for current work is evident. It is key to know which satellites are used and which ones have better options for data development. This, in turn, generates the importance of land uses and their changes in area and percentage over the years in a more exact way. This information can be used to determine limitations and recommendations, such as soil analysis by sampling, environmental monitoring, and environmental education. These recommendations can generate compliance and monitoring for good management and joint work in cooperation with the local community for a good future use of the soil in the buffer zone, as well as in the Bijagual - Mamapacha páramo in Tota, Boyacá.
