Value for the territory

BUPi’s mission is to support the enhancement of the territory. We aim to continue innovating and developing new technologies that assist in the identification and added value of the land.

On this page, explore a selection of case studies and discover how the project is impacting Portugal.

GIS — Sharing knowledge with those who need it

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) aggregate territorial data — topographic, cartographic, hydrographic, infrastructure and wildfire risk — forming a foundational knowledge base about the land.

Value of BUPi for municipal initiatives

Pampilhosa da Serra — Collaboration for prevention

Following the devastating wildfire of 2017, which destroyed homes, crops, and forests, the need for a long-term, structural response became clear. The AIGP programme brought a new vision for managing the landscape, and local residents joined the effort by creating ARdaSerra — an association that fosters dialogue and helps create the conditions for effective interventions. But none of this would be possible without one essential element: knowing who owns the land and where its limits are. Discover how ARdaSerra is using BUPi to protect and regenerate Pampilhosa da Serra.

AIGP

Integrated Landscape Management Areas (AIGP) are an initiative created as part of the forest reform, aiming to manage and organise rural land in a more efficient, sustainable, and collaborative way.

They seek to reduce the risk of rural fires, enhance the economic and environmental value of the landscape, and support agriculture, forestry, and biodiversity.

BUPi provides the cadastral and legal foundation that allows AIGPs to operate effectively in municipalities without a land registry.

AIGPs also promote access to funding for managing properties within the covered areas. In order to apply for this support, properties must be properly identified.
