Abstract

The present research project aims to generate a territorial analysis on the characterization and study of the subdivisions of second residence in the Mesa de los Santos, Santander, taking into account the impact generated by the singular tourist enclave known as Plazuela Mesa de The Santos headquarters of the Chicamocha National Park, in which the positive and negative externalities can be identified, which can produce a transformation in the suburban dynamics on the axis of influence. The research was developed through the methodological process of Kulok, which is conformed by four phases; First the organization of thematic units, secondly the field work, thirdly the analysis of variables, and finally the proposed model. For the development of this study was used as main source of information the aerial photographs obtained from the IGAC, which allowed to make a deep multitemporal analysis reflecting the different impacts generated by the tourist enclave. Finally the research process takes a direction different from the one initially thought, after having carried out the multitemporal analyzes other variables that ended up making the project something more interesting due to the intrigue of finalizing the study and observing the real impact or impacts generated by the enclave Tourist station La Plazuela. In the project execution process, several tools were used such as ArcGIS extension of ArcGis and Excel, which facilitated both quantitative and qualitative analysis, as well as graphical analysis and mapping. Tables, graphs, and combination of variables were other activities that were developed during the course of the research.
