Abstract
Castilla y León is a region with a weight of important agricultural activity and the vineyard one of the most representative crops of this region, but especially in the central plains of the River Duero. Topographic variables, and in particular the altitude and slope, and less exposure, will determine the distribution of the vineyards in the territory of the region. For the preparation of this paper is to use the Digital Terrain Model of Castilla y León and surface data vines provided by the Information System on Occupation of Land in Spain (2005), and through the GIS , using the ArcGIS 10.1 program and the Excel spreadsheet, that will allow to develop a set of maps and graphics that let you see the distribution of this crop in this area.Downloads
