Inventario georreferenciado de los bloques del Campus Principal de la Universidad de Pamplona.

Abstract

A geographic information system is a tool or set of technological means in the organization and collection of data, driven by points, lines and polygons that together represent measurable and geo-referenced geographical entities and spatial variables, with the aim of providing relevant, coherent and systematic information. The aim of this project was to draw up a geo-referenced inventory of the blocks of the main campus of the University of Pamplona through the ArcGIS programme, purporting to contribute to the development of a spatial database using the ArcGIS software for the inventory of the infrastructure of the main campus where each block is referenced and specified, as it is constituted, with how many classrooms it has, laboratories, offices and other equipment; this program will be fed by “shapefile” being geometric entities represented by points, lines or polygons depending on each structure of the data collected with the exact geographic information and coordinates taken from the main campus. As a result, users will be able to find an updated database with all the detailed information about the place they need within the institution. It is concluded that it is essential to keep up-to-date information on the infrastructure of the main campus of the university in order to make better decisions when designing or modifying classrooms taking into account regulations in force in Colombia.
