How to use the map of Mitú
Explore 87 activity areas and four rural records for Mitú, Vaupés, published by IGAC in 2025. Urban areas distinguish residential and commercial sectors, parks and squares. The four rural details are “Resguardo indígena” and three conservation districts: these instrument labels do not replace official registers of ethnic territories or protected areas. The IGAC register retrieved on 6 October 2026 reports the 2005 EOT, Agreement 8 of 30 May 2005, as current and its long-term validity as expired. It lists an update on 15 December 2024; it does not certify the applicable rules per polygon.

Locate an area and understand its identifiers
Open Planning and select a residential sector or park. Compare Uso_Principal with Detalle_Uso_Principal: codes use each layer’s own domain. In the rural query, zoom in to read a record with its complete geometry. Query the EOT under Tools and distinguish instrument status from long-term validity.
97001 identifies Mitú in DANE; it does not represent all of Vaupés. OBJECTID distinguishes mapping records, not parcels, Indigenous reserves or authorizations. Parcel search is not enabled, and road coverage is not inferred from the basemap.
Use Explore to search and choose queries, Layers to enable and inspect sources, and Thematic maps to compare categories. Under Layers, “Tools and planning register” opens Tools; “Inspect and export results” opens received attributes and results.
In Tools, “Reported planning instruments” lets you inspect municipal acts and their statuses in the national register. Select “Look up national register” to load this city’s records. Instrument status and long-term validity are separate fields; the register may be outdated and does not certify parcel rules. Links open the IGAC source, ColombiaOT and the local portal; they do not open an act PDF directly.

- Open the example to load the first planning layer at this location. Enter these coordinates in search to return to the area.
- Inspect the layer categories and select a feature to read its attributes. Zoom in if the layer indicates a minimum query scale.
- Enable another layer in the theme to compare boundaries. Map overlap does not constitute an official planning opinion for a parcel.

Interpret results before sharing
- Read each layer and record’s source and date. Retrieval time shows when the response was received; it does not establish a data update or legal validity.
- Check statuses: an unavailable source or a query without results does not establish that no conditions apply. If a partial-result notice appears, zoom in and repeat the query within a smaller area.
- Filters, thematic maps and statistics describe received records. Do not add overlapping polygons or turn a partial count into a city total.
- Share the public view or export results with their source and date. Measurements are approximate; imported files remain in your browser and are excluded from shared links.
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 response contains up to 500 features and 2 MB. Reference publications load matching pages, up to 5,000 features and 8 MB per query. External services may return partial samples, identified in the viewer.

| Activity areas · IGAC 2025Mitú municipality · IGAC / Colombia OT · GeoSAT adaptation: domain labels and empty values 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. Copy retrieved on 6 October 2026. 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. Catalog scale 1:2.000. In Mitú, urban areas include residential and commercial sectors, parks and squares. The four rural records describe an Indigenous reserve and three conservation districts. Those labels do not replace official ethnic-territory boundaries or the protected-area register. Compatible, conditional and prohibited uses are unreported. | 2025-11-28Source checked: | CC BY 4.0 · Colombia en Mapas |

| Territorial divisions · IGACInstituto Geográfico Agustín Codazzi · Administrative divisions Territorial reference for the visible area: includes departments and neighboring municipalities or districts, with overlapping polygons. Do not add their areas or interpret results as a municipal count. Published categories: 0 department, 1 municipality, 2 district, 3 uncategorized; other codes are retained without a verified definition. Territorial codes remain text; they are not parcel identifiers. Depto and the legal reference are source attributes, not certification of administrative hierarchy or legal validity. Update date not declared. Geometries are generalized by zoom level and coordinates rounded for display; unsuitable for exact positioning, measuring areas or distances, or resolving boundaries. Credit IGAC and identify these changes when reusing. | No dataset-wide date declared; check individual recordsSource checked: | CC BY 4.0 |
| Agricultural frontier · UPRAUnidad de Planificación Rural Agropecuaria · UPRA Indicative reference at 1:100,000 scale, version 4.1 according to the service; not crop suitability, land-use permission or a parcel assessment. SIPRA warns against use for financial, credit or parcel-planning decisions. The metadata linked by SIPRA is titled June 2025 but lists creation on 2026-03-22 and publication/revision on 2025-05-29: no dataset-wide date is assigned. The methodology aggregates patches larger than 25 ha within 100 m and fills holes smaller than 25 ha. The viewer also generalizes geometry by zoom and rounds coordinates; do not measure areas or settle boundaries with it. Queried polygons may include neighboring municipalities and are not a complete municipal inventory. Empty results do not establish absence of restrictions. Department names and codes remain as published, without validating administrative hierarchy; municipal codes do not identify parcels. This layer does not distinguish conditioned and unconditioned agricultural frontier.
