Explore these layers ↗Reference mapping published by IGAC from municipal planning instruments. The catalog lists publication on 28 November 2025 and inputs dated 20 February 2025; these are not adoption dates or polygon update dates. The layer does not identify the applicable act for each feature: query the instrument register separately under Tools. Codes retain official domain labels without standardizing categories or filling nulls. Empty compatible, conditional or prohibited-use fields do not mean a use is allowed. All received polygons, rings and vertices are retained; counts do not represent parcels or exclusive areas. Queries load the visible area in pages. Does not certify authorized uses, building capacity, permits, planning validity or current hazards. The rural copy retains all 18 original records as 753 components without simplifying rings or vertices; OBJECTID identifies the official record and ID_COMPONENTE_COPIA its position in this copy. Component counts do not represent parcels. 62476 retains the observation “Parque nacional natural Serranía de los Yariguíes”, use 13, Preservation, and category 9 without certification of current environmental boundaries. Watercourse strips and terrain with slopes above 100% retain use 3, Forestry, and category 12; this copy does not measure slopes. Waste-service, construction-waste disposal, animal-processing facility and buffer labels do not establish operating infrastructure or permits. “Centro poblado rural San Pablo” retains use 12, Centro_Poblado, and category 6; “Residencial ” and “Dotacional 1” retain uses 7 and 8 respectively in the same category. Compatible, conditional and prohibited uses are unreported.

Planning land uses and zoning
Open the prepared query, mark a point and compare results by layer.
Query planning and land use →Query planning and land use at a point
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.
- Open the viewer and choose the planning query.
- Mark a point on the map or query its center. Pan the map to inspect another area.
- Compare findings by layer and open their sources. A layer with no matches, awaiting integration or unavailable does not establish an absence of rules.
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.
Query Contratación planning →How to use the map
- Open the prepared query for this theme in the viewer. Locate an area using latitude, longitude coordinates or general place and address search.
- Review enabled layers and zoom to their query scale. Check each layer’s scope: it may query the visible area or the full municipal extent. An empty or unavailable service does not establish that no conditions apply.
- Select a feature on the map or in the Results list. Check its attributes, retrieval time and any partial-result notice.
- Choose a field and exact value to filter the layer. Export includes received results, with attribution and dates. Its coverage depends on the query scope and filters.

Local search and identifiers
Open the planning example and press “Query map center” to view 47110, “Comercial 1”. To filter records, use “View layers and explore the area”, “Inspect and export results”, the Activity areas layer and the Record identifier (OBJECTID) field. The source mentions Parque nacional natural Serranía de los Yariguíes, slopes above 100%, facilities and buffers, and the rural populated center of San Pablo; these labels do not certify current boundaries, measurements or operating facilities. Watercourse strips and slopes described as “Áreas forestales protectoras” retain use 3, Forestry, and category 12 for ecosystem importance. The 18 rural records require 753 exact components; components are neither parcels nor new source records. Compatible, conditional and prohibited uses are unreported in every record; an empty or null value means neither permitted nor prohibited. For rural example 62477, “Áreas forestales protectoras”, move the center to longitude -73.59354, latitude 6.30799, zoom to 14 and query the center; to filter, select Rural zoning. General address search does not identify parcels.
Municipal code 68211 identifies Contratación in Santander. OBJECTID identifies a record within each source; Uso_Principal and Tipo_Categoria_Rural retain their separate domains. These are neither cadastral identifiers nor authorized uses. The IGAC register reports EOT2001, Acuerdo 9, adopted on 2001-09-18, with instrument status “Repealed” and long-term validity “Unreported”; register updated on 2025-08-15. The IGAC register reports EOT2021, Acuerdo 3, adopted on 2021-02-27, with instrument status “In force” and long-term validity “In force”; register updated on 2025-08-15. Instrument status and long-term validity are separate IGAC-register fields. They neither certify currently applicable rules nor identify the act behind each polygon. The CEM catalog reports 2025-11-28 as its date and 2025-02-20 for inputs for both layers; these are neither municipal-act adoption dates nor dates for individual polygons. Copies were retrieved on 2026-10-08. Planning-register adoption and update dates are shown separately. Under IGAC public cadastre, use “Search by NPN” with all 30 digits to query this municipality’s urban and rural layers, independently of the map view. CODIGO preserves the published identifier as text, not a land-title folio or CBML. The database cut is 2026-08-31 and certifies neither ownership, precision nor parcel planning rules. General address search does not identify parcels. Verified windows do not establish a complete municipal inventory.
Query guide for Contratación →Sources, dates and limits
Each source’s verification date appears in the table. Retrieval time is not the data update date. Small city-wide layers use the full extent; larger layers depend on the visible area. Reference publications retain their original retrieval date. Each page contains up to 500 features: up to 2 MiB for external services and 4 MiB for local publications. Reference publications load matching pages, up to 5,000 features and 8 MiB per query. External services may return partial samples, identified in the viewer.
