Historical and geospatial reconstruction of a sector of the alternative route of the railway to the Atlantic (years 1871-1873), called: "Fajardo line", in a geographical area associated with the valleys of Orosi and Ujarrás, Cartago, Costa Rica

This work consists of a historical and geospatial reconstruction, using Geographic Information Systems (GIS), of a sector of the alternative route of the Costa Rican Atlantic railway called: "Fajardo line", built between 1871-1873 and later abandoned. It was promoted by the government of T...

Bonilla-Hidalgo, Maureen A. Quesada-Román, Adolfo Esta fue impulsada por el gobierno de Tomás Guardia Gutiérrez y ejecutada por el contratista norteamericano Henry Meiggs Keith. En su momento esa obra incluyó, geográficamente, el norte y el oeste de los valles coloniales de Orosi y Ujarrás, respectivamente, en la provincia de Cartago. Esta investigación abarcó la compilación documental (histórica) y de insumos geoespaciales, así como la identificación, análisis e integración, mediante SIG, de vestigios constructivos de obras civiles y de evidencias de actividad antrópica asociada, dentro del área de estudio. Como resultado fue posible reconstruir geoespacialmente la ruta original del ferrocarril en el sector geográfico de interés, mediante una confiable integración metodológica, de las diferentes evidencias identificadas.   This work consists of a historical and geospatial reconstruction, using Geographic Information Systems (GIS), of a sector of the alternative route of the Costa Rican Atlantic railway called: "Fajardo line", built between 1871-1873 and later abandoned.
