Abstract

In this paper, we present a map of the current state of vegetation and land use in a UTM square measuring 10 × 10 km in Utande (La Alcarria, Central Spain) at a semi-detailed scale of 1:20,000. The map presented here offers an example of how to carry out a series of maps of the plant landscape, using regular grid squares of 100 km2 (hectads). The map was drawn up using a cartographic method scaled in levels, which can be updated in line with advances in territorial tracking, and enabled us to group together synthetic categories adapted to the biogeographical idiosyncrasy of territory. We recommend combining this phytocoenotic study with another focusing on the flora and the chorology in the same space. A map was obtained with 35 categories, which offers a large-scale image of the biophysical land covers. This will be useful for territorial planning and biodiversity protection.
