La “Guía introductoria a los Sistemas de Información Geográfica en QGIS: herramientas básicas y aplicaciones ambientales” es un trabajo oportuno y accesible para la formación ambiental y territorial. Mientras el uso de tecnologías geoespaciales es un recurso cada vez presente en la gestión pública, la educación y la investigación, es limitado el material en español que combine claridad didáctica, enfoque ambiental y uso de herramientas informáticas libres. En ese sentido, esta guía ofrece una propuesta pensada tanto para personas que se inician con los Sistemas de Información Geográfica (SIG) como para quienes ya han tenido algún contacto con estos programas y buscan profundizar su práctica desde una perspectiva aplicada. ....

At the beginning of 2000, the Endeavor spacecraft orbited the Earth as part of the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) and collected data that revolutionized environmental studies. For the first time, topographic data covering nearly the globe became accessible as Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) with a spatial resolution of tens of meters. The DEM derived from these data remains the most widely used worldwide. However, digital elevation models from other surveys and processing techniques have since been made available, many of which are recognized for their superior quality. Research and investments continue to be directed toward generating products that provide better topographic representation. ...

For issue 111 of Revista Cartográfica, a new exchange between art and maps is proposed, this time inspired by the iconic album cover: “Unknown Pleasures” by Joy Division. The black-and-white image, designed in 1979 by Peter Saville for the fledgling post-punk band, is originally a graphic derived from an analysis of pulsar radio signals, which Saville reinterpreted in an abstract way. The image, with its minimalist aesthetic and emotional charge, has transcended as one of the most recognizable emblems of music and visual culture of the 1970s and 1980s. Looking at the parallel lines, which rise with the radio signal, one has the sensation of seeing a vast plain that gradually gives way to a mountain range. As a cartographer, the question arose almost naturally: what would the Andes Mountains look like if they were represented in the same style? Would their characteristic shape be recognizable? ...

During the 1960s, Cuba experienced a broad construction process in response to the Revolutionary Government’s social programs, including educational ones. Many of these buildings are recorded in the specialized literature, but there are still little-known works, such as the André Voisin Technological Institute of Soils and Fertilizers in Güines, by the Italian architect Vittorio Garatti. This relevant example of the period is currently in ruins, so this research had the objective of documenting and characterizing the work with the support of theoretical and empirical methods, interviews, finterviews, and field and archival work. The results provide a wealth of documentary information about the complex, its execution process and its authors, and a virtual reconstruction of the complex, which allows us to know the values of the work as a relevant, significant and unique contribution of its author within the panorama of the Cuban Modern Movement of its time.

The former Municipal District of Santiago de las Vegas, in the province of Havana, experienced an accelerated process of urbanization between 1930 and 1960, motivated by the expansion of the International Airport and a legal framework that favored the promotion of new subdivisions. These followed the patterns of modern urbanism used in the Havana periphery in the period analyzed, in a process that is poorly documented in the specialized literature. This work characterizes, from a historical perspective, said development, after analyzing the contextual conditions that led to the emergence of its residential subdivisions, through documentary analysis and field study. The results show the particularities of the urban growth of the municipal district and its subdivisions, concluding that its urban area, smaller than in other places in the city, was linear and more concentrated on the edges of Avenida de Rancho Boyeros, with urban layouts that varied significantly in qualities and standards.

The architecture of the Modern Movement in Cuba requires greater dissemination and recognition, given the values of existing works at national and local levels. The objective of this work was aimed at demonstrating the relevance of the building of the Rectorate of the University of Oriente, as an exponent of rationalist architectural heritage. Theoretical methods typical of historical research, field observations, and consultations of documentary and archival sources, as well as previous studies, were used. As a result, its distinctive functional, volumetric-formal, technical-constructive and spatial-environmental components were determined, highlighting its relevance as part of the built landscape of the city of Santiago de Cuba. The resulting urban-architectural characterization showed that the work maintains features of the rationalism advocated by Le Corbusier, and the values that were identified in this research place it as an essential part of the Heritage Complex of the University of Oriente, declared a National Monument in 2021.

This article attempts to visualize modernity as a process of cultural exchange between Europe and Latin America, where the transnational import and export of ideas enriches the cultural environment of a country, a region, a city, which implies the recognition of an authentic and autonomous culture, and not a reproduction of prefigured stereotypes and images. Two iconic examples of urban and architectural modernization in Mexico are taken as case studies, and their European references are established in the 1950s and 1960s. One is the Presidente Alemán Housing Unit and the other is the Presidente López Mateos Urban Center in Nonoalco-Tlatelolco, both by architect Mario Pani. It starts from a descriptive analysis of the socio-political discourse of modernization of the time and the urban-architectural characteristics of both projects to understand modern architecture in Mexico.

Bamboo cultivation and its many applications in architecture are ecological practices that are not widely used in Cuba, even though they could contribute to increasing production levels in construction and reducing its negative impact on the environment. This research aimed to assess the use of bamboo in Cuban architecture from a sustainability perspective. To support the theoretical assessments presented, deductive- analytical procedures, as well as qualitative research and design tools were applied. In this essay, preceding national experiences on materials of low energy consumption and the use of bamboo in construction are discussed, which was contrasted with the current situation of the country. It is concluded that bamboo could contribute to the sustainability of the construction sector and the renewal of national architecture in a context marked by severe and repeated energy crises.
