Abstract

The urbanization process occurred in Spain during the last two decades has affected not only the coastal and suburban areas but also the countryside, although more selectively. In Castile and Leon has had intensity previously unknown. In this communication we try to quantify, first, the land uses changes occurred in the past two decades, specially upon all those involved in artificial spaces and, above all, in buildings. Used as a first approximation, the Corine Land Cover 1990, 2000 and 2006, will provide a good information, which, applied to the entire region and its external fringes, will be completed with larger scale aerial photographs, only for focusing on rural areas of more intense transformation. Finally, we will finish this level of analysis with significant examples
