This paper focuses on the socioeconomic analysis of the transportation system in the center of the Iberian Peninsula during the mid-18th century. Data extracted from the documentary levels of the Catastro de Ensenada, corresponding to the 319 localities that make up the current province of & Aacute;vila, were used, complemented by information from road repositories and other sources. As a result, a preliminary map of the land transportation system has been developed, which includes the characterization of inns, as well as an analysis of the typology, location, number, and utilities of the transportation routes. Additionally, data on goods, pack animals, and types of households are provided, as well as on the type, ownership, and operation of inns, which will allow for the definition of a first economic map of the transportation system in the central peninsula, providing a solid foundation for understanding the structure and operability of transportation networks.
