摘要
Assessment of flora and vegetation constitutes one of the basic tools for the management of the natural environment, as this is an indicator of the state of conservation of the territory. A methodology is proposed for the assessment of flora and vegetation based upon non-compensatory type multicriteria evaluation techniques implemented within GIS. Due to its marked agricultural character, the study area presents no significant value for flora and vegetation. We can only highlight some areas close to the Guadarrama Mountains and some areas where Ilex coccifera and gypsiferous shrublands are present at the southeast part of the region. This study is part of a global environmental assessment project of currently unprotected territories in the Madrid region and attempts to reveal spaces that are eligible for protection due to their environmental quality and state of conservation.
