ABSTRACT
The continuous interaction between natural, structural and social environments define the city as a complex, multidisciplinary being. Cultivating interdisciplinary dialogue is necessary for an efficient and sustainable city project. Geographic Information System (GIS) use cartographic and geographical representations of environments on digital platforms to answer spatial questions. The system does not analyze the spatial data, but rather provides the necessary information for an expert to study the space, identify its natural and anthropogenic components, and explore solutions that promote sustainable development. GIS offers two models, the vector and GRID model. In the vector model, geometrical representations are not limited to the spatial relationships between objects. The GRID model has no objects, but rather a continuum of geo-referenced units called pixels, which occupy the entire analysis section. The Information Matrix Plan (IMP) served as the foundation of project methodology. The team developed the IMP for analysis, classification and delivery of information within the GIS.
