✦ Synopsis

Mexican environmental legislation mandates public participation in regional devclopment planning, so sectoral intercsts must be taken into account. A multivariate statistical procedure is presented for classifying land units into suitability groups, according to sectoral interests. This method provides information that is both legally defensible and accurate. The method is demonstrated by a sludy case.

Keywords: Mexico, environmental assessments, land use planning, regional development.
