“…Urban Planning must also involve a bioregional approach where a territory of water and soils is perceived whose limits are defined by geographical boundaries of ecological systems, which allows essential environmental processes and satisfy territory requirements for key species to be sustained, and include human communities in the management, use, and understanding of biological resources [71,76].…”

Urban planning is recognized as an interaction between the state and society, which aims to articulate public policies in the territory, facilitating their administration in favor of greater development and well-being of society. However, this interaction becomes complex because consumption demands increase, and the carrying capacity of the urban ecosystem to supply them is exceeded, hindering its sustainable functionality. With this overview, it becomes relevant to study urban planning from a sustainable environmental planning perspective, based on four topics: urban planning, sustainability, resilience, and smart cities, which are developed throughout the document by means of a chronological study. A bibliometric study was used through a Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) adjustment to 87 articles, supported by VOSviewer®, which allowed for the construction and visualization of the co-occurrence networks of key words extracted from the selected articles. Likewise, 16 documents more were used for the co-occurrence analysis. The main result is to consider cities with a complex systems approach that works like a gear; the relationship between inter-urban and intra-urban processes is the key factor that allows for an understanding of their synchronization; therefore, deepening of each of these topics is crucial to the ideal of a territorial administration involving time scales and adaptive cycles, allowing for the provision of new tools for concepts such as carrying capacity and the measurement of the ecological footprint.

“…El material constructivo del dique podría jugar un papel importante en la reducción del riesgo, si por el contrario es reemplazado por una obra "blanda" compuesto por vegetación y materiales convencionales como sugiere los nuevos enfoques de adaptación basado en ecosistemas (Spalding et al, 2014). Estas nuevas tendencias ingenieriles buscan una integración con la dinámica local mientras aumenta el valor ambiental, mostrando un bajo costo de inversión y mantenimiento en comparación a obras de protección convencionales en zonas costeras (Reguero et al, 2017). Este ejercicio de simulación de la amenaza y daños, impactaría en generar conciencia de preparación en nuevos enfoques integrados con el entorno natural del delta ante la ocurrencia del escenario local más adverso de inundación: crecida del río Ranchería, con aumento de la marea o nivel medio del mar por el CC y las inundaciones de la escorrentía urbana.…”

Modelación Hidráulica 2D de Inundaciones en Regiones con Escasez de Datos. El Caso del Delta del Río Ranchería, Riohacha-Colombia

ResumenSe planteó una estrategia metodológica que solventa la escasez de datos para la modelación 2D de inundaciones en un delta. Digitalizando la elevación disponible en Google Earth TM e integrada con secciones levantadas en el río y datos topográficos, se obtuvo una nube de puntos topográfica. Esta fue posteriormente interpolada a una red de triángulos irregular, y finalmente, la generación de un Modelo Digital del Terreno. Se simuló bidimensionalmente (IBER v2.3.2) un evento de inundación y una medida estructural (dique) para proteger una comunidad vulnerable. El desbordamiento se presentó solamente en el tramo final del cauce, por tanto, no influyó sobre el área urbana de la ciudad de Riohacha. El dique lograría evitar artificialmente las inundaciones en la zona protegida, pero aumentando el riesgo por inundación ante posibles fallas debido a crecidas de mayor magnitud. De acuerdo a los resultados, la metodología planteada es útil para el cálculo de áreas inundables en zonas deltaicas y apoyo a la toma decisiones en regiones con escases de datos. Palabras clave: modelación 2D; IBER; inundación; modelo digital de terreno 2D Hydraulic Flood Modeling in Data-Scarce Regions The Case of Ranchería River Delta, Riohacha-Colombia AbstractA methodological approach which overcomes the lack of data available for 2D hydrodynamic modeling in deltaic floodplains is proposed. By digitizing the elevation data available in Google Earth TM and integrating them with river cross sections data surveyed on the field, plus additional topographic data available, a topographic point cloud was obtained. This was later interpolated in a Triangulated Irregular Network, and finally, a Digital Terrain Model was generated. A two-dimensional simulation (with IBER v2.3.2) for a flood event together with a solution alternative including a structural measure (levee) to protect a vulnerable community were carried out. Overflow occurred only in the final stretch of the riverbed. Therefore, it did not influence the urban area of the city of Riohacha. The levee would artificially avoid the flooding on the target area for protection but increasing the flood risk due to possible failure that would occur when a swelling river occurs. Based on results, the proposed methodology is useful for determining flood prone areas in deltaic zones and well supports decision making in data-scarce regions.

“…Thus, a bioregional approach towards territory planning is appropriate, perceived as a region delimited by geographical limits and determined by ecological systems, both allowing for ecological processes, satisfying the territorial demands for the preservation of native species, understanding factors regarding biological resources, and social cohesion [5,6]. Consequently, the importance of connections between rural and urban areas is reflected, turning this into a complex symbiotic network that connects goods and services, playing a determining role in the perspective of the territory as promoters of sustainable management.…”

The organization of a territory relies on a group of transformations produced by economic, environmental, and social emergencies, generating disruptions along with history. Furthermore, every new scenario generates a considerable impact, which makes it more difficult to recover from increasing urban ecological footprints. COVID-19-emergence-aware cities face new challenges that will test their resilience. This new outline constitutes a study regarding urban planning from an environmental and resilience perspective within this new pandemic state of emergency. It contains four main topics: emergent cities, natural resources, sustainability, and resilience. The document shows a case study carried out in a Colombian town named Cajicá, where a bibliometric inquiry conducted with PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) adjustments was managed, tested on forty-one scientific papers; all the above were verified by VOSviewer software tools. The study reveals the creation and visualization of several keyword networks and relations retrieved from all the selected articles, along with the use of eight additional documents for all relation analyses. Sustainability and resilience are the main findings, supported as a process of functionality within urban planning. Sustainability findings’ results are prioritized, along with resilience analysis processes, which are both frameworks used during the COVID-19 pandemic; they constitute the main argument within this set of changes, building on alterations of lifestyle and behavioral situations within the main cities.
