La cartografía de las Memorias Generales de Repoblación de 1878: bosquejos y croquis dasográficos y agronómicos

Las Memorias Generales de Repoblación surgen con las disposiciones que desarrollan la Ley de 11 de julio de 1877 sobre repoblación, fomento y mejora de los montes públicos. Elaboradas por el personal de los distritos forestales, se envían al Ministerio de Fomento entre 1878 y 1884. Además de contener los objetivos y las actuaciones repobladoras propuestas por cada distrito, también reflejan, desde el punto de vista de los ingenieros del ramo, la situación de los montes españoles e incluyen en ocasiones, dentro de esta lógica descriptiva, una cartografía básica de contenido forestal, agronómico y geológico. Ésta es conocida en unos pocos casos a través de los originales publicados a mayor escala; pero en otros no se tenía constancia de su existencia más que por referencias documentales. Unos y otros ejemplos se enmarcan dentro del esfuerzo cartográfico español que caracteriza la segunda mitad del siglo XIX.
