Abstract

Some of the principles of the Convention European of the Landscape come out the borders of this one from academic initiatives that trasfieren methods, technologies and attitudes for example to Latin-American countries. The research consists of the environmental valuation of the environmental and visual impact that there cause the towers of high tension in Santiago of Chile. For it there are designed extensive counterfoils which results by means of SIG are translated in a cartography specific and of synthesis. The final offer is to re-use the territory that the towers occupy in the city once buried the chains, of this form there would be generated green areas of high environmental value.
