Understanding the Mapocho River as a simple channel with a water flow and axis of adjacent parks would no longer be sufficient for their integration into the urban region in the perspective of sustainable habitability. It recognizes a priori the existence of a possible potential of developing low sustainability guidelines for the Mapocho Bottom. It is possible its constitution in one tourist-recreational-environmental and quiet mobility of people and species. The knowledge provided and integrated analysis, would have an environmental interaction matrix,
and then determine and systematize characteristic sections of the river, and some polygons
and subpolygons for environmentally sustainable land management.
