Alineaciones y rasantes in the Canary Islands

We prepare the technical and topographic documentation needed to define or officially request the alineación of a parcel (its building line in relation to the street) and the cotas or rasantes (the official levels) that condition the future building.

Urban street with aligned facades and pavements

When you need this service

  • You are going to build and the project or the town hall requires knowing the official building line.
  • You need to know at what level the future building's reference plane must sit.
  • You are asked for the alineaciones y rasantes within a licence procedure.
  • The parcel borders the public road and its position relative to it must be defined.

What problem it solves

The alineación defines how far the building may reach in relation to the street, and the rasante sets the reference level on which it is built. Knowing them precisely and with official backing is essential to design and to prevent the licence from being delayed by position or level errors.

What's included

  • Topographic survey of the parcel and its immediate surroundings in relation to the street.
  • Technical and topographic documentation for the definition or application of alineaciones and rasantes.
  • Preparation and submission of the application to the town hall, where applicable.
  • Plans with the resulting building line and levels.

What we need to assess your case

  • Cadastral reference and delimitation of the parcel.
  • Access for the topographic survey.
  • The file or project it is intended for, if it exists.

[05]

What you will receive

  • Topographic documentation of the parcel in relation to the street.
  • Plans with the building line and levels.
  • The municipal resolution, when the procedure requires it and the town hall issues it.
