Methodological note
Definition of concepts
- Natural place of national interest
- Natural space or element of medium or small size with unique characteristics of scientific, scenic or educational interest, as declared by a law to guarantee its protection. In these places activities are limited to traditional agricultural, livestock and forestry activities that are compatible with the specific objectives of protecting the space and other activities that are appropriate for such management.
- Natural park
- Spaces with qualified natural values. The reason for protecting them is for their conservation to be compatible with the organised exploitation of resources and its inhabitants' activities. The declaration is made by decree.
Methodological aspects
All specially protected natural spaces are included in the Plan for spaces of natural interest. Date on 31, December.
The Plan for spaces of natural interest (PEIN - Pla d'Espais d'Interès Natural) delimits and stablishes the required guidelines for the basic protection of the natural spaces which conservation must be guaranteed according to their scientific, ecological, scenic, cultural, social, educational and recreational values.
When the value is lower than that of the minimum unit to be able to estimate the statistical operation or if it effects statistical confidentiality, the symbol used is "..".
