Development building ranges in Bogotá

Open the historical RANGO 4A example alongside the SDP Desarrollo (development) treatment. Compare both copies: 4A is a mapped category, not storeys or a floor area ratio; it does not certify current conditions for a parcel.

Query Bogotá planning by point or lot

Locate an area and read matching polygons from the integrated layers together. The record retains their codes, attributes, sources and dates; unknown values remain unreported.

  1. Open the viewer and choose the planning query.
  2. Mark a point on the map or query its center. Pan the map to inspect another area.
  3. Compare findings by layer and open their sources. A layer with no matches, awaiting integration or unavailable does not establish an absence of rules.

In Bogotá, open “Query POT across this lot” from a lot found by the point query or from its map record. Cadastre geometry is retrieved without additional generalization to query planning polygons intersecting the whole lot. The white outline shows the queried lot; a match may only touch a boundary. Affected percentages and areas are not calculated. A lot may contain several properties: it identifies neither owners nor legal parcel boundaries.

This is a mapping query by location, not an address search or a legal report. It confirms neither legal validity, permits nor authorized activities; cross-check applicable documents and administrative acts.

How to use it

  1. Click “Open this query” to load Development building ranges · SDP 2022 and Planning treatments · 5 Oct 2026 copy in the viewer. Zoom to neighborhood scale: these layers are queried up close.
  2. Select a feature on the map or in the Results list to read its record with attributes, source and date.
  3. Build a thematic map to compare, or open statistics to analyze the loaded data.
  4. Share the view link or export received results with attribution and dates.

Locate the query in Bogotá

Locate an area by coordinates or general address and place search; a match does not identify or certify a parcel. Enable layers, select a polygon and read its attributes. The Lots layer identifies the mapped lot and its LOTCODIGO and queries planning polygons intersecting its entire outline; a lot may contain several properties and does not certify a legal property unit. From the record, query planning across the lot: its complete geometry is retrieved and validated. After completion, save that lot and select a different LOTCODIGO to compare two queries, keeping sources, dates, errors and partial results separate; no percentages or development rights are calculated. A mapped lot is not a legal property unit. Parcel planning reports and official land-use queries are provided by SINUPOT. The independent ANLA project query shows areas and attributes published by the Autoridad Nacional de Licencias Ambientales (ANLA), retaining its attribution. The prepared example opens record objectid 125 for file LAM2782. Its literal note “Bodega activa de acuerdo con el ESA” (“Warehouse active according to the ESA”) belongs to the historical source; it does not confirm current operation. This is not land-use zoning and establishes neither current legal validity of permits nor a complete district inventory. One file may have several areas and acts: records are not unique projects, and their areas must not be summed as affected district land. The act date is not a mapping update; the source declares neither a mapping scale nor a dataset-wide date, and the item declares no specific reuse licence. Queries are limited to 500 records and 2 MiB; results depend on the queried area and may be partial. Consult the official ANLA links and confirm the file and its acts.

Bogotá uses CHIP and BARMANPRE in cadastral sources. Local cadastre filters a 12-digit LOTCODIGO only within the visible area; this is not a district-wide or NPN search. GeoSAT does not search parcels by these identifiers or convert them to Medellín’s CBML. Use the official Cadastre and Planning channels to locate and consult a parcel by its identifier.

Frequently asked questions

What does “Development building ranges” show?

Development building ranges · SDP 2022: codes 1, 2, 3 and 4A–4D are mapped building-range categories for the development treatment. A 3 does not mean three storeys or a floor area ratio of 3. The query also opens the Planning treatments copy to compare the context; consult SINUPOT for applicable instruments and conditions.

What date and coverage does the query have?

For ranges, SDP gives 9 May 2022 as the data date and 29 December 2021 for the act and capture. GeoSAT retrieved the download on 6 October 2026. All 2,748 components of the 11 original grouped records are shown; these are not 2,748 parcels. EEP and PEMP have no stated range and appear as No compatible value, without assigning zero. The treatments copy was retrieved on 5 October 2026 and retains a catalog date of 2 September 2026; the example has act and capture dates of 29 December 2021. These dates do not establish legal validity.

How can I reproduce an example and share the result?

Open the query in Bogotá at latitude 4.7455 and longitude −74.0775, zoom 17. The point intersects RANGO 4A and the Desarrollo (development) treatment, CODIGO_ID 937, in the two copies. Select each result and compare its attributes and act; the example has no stated activity area. The main legend retains RANGO. Filter Published range using the exact value 4A, or explore another area. Wait for paginated loading to finish; partial-result notices mean you should zoom in. Share the view or export received components with SDP attribution and the CC BY 4.0 license.

Does it certify how much I can build today?

No. These are two historical copies for reference queries; the ranges copy was converted from the official SHP. They do not establish later planning changes or replace official determinations, permits or parcel queries. Range counts and record positions describe that copy, without CHIP or BARMANPRE identifiers. Coordinate conversion is not a precision survey.
