Geography, as spatial science, relies on the use of quantitative methods applied with Geographical Information Systems (GIS). In this context, cartographic modeling and multi-criteria evaluation techniques allowed the definition of a methodological strategy for identifying areas of potential conflict between land-uses at a regional scale (LUCIS). The research is carried out in the Luján river basin with the purpose of defining these areas as a consequence of future spatial competition between urban land-use, agricultural production and conservation areas. The results obtained are an excellent tool to use in the field of land-use planning.References
