The SIU does not map land classes here: the town plan is the source.
Only the town hall can confirm it, in writing: ask for a certificado urbanístico.
Is there water?

Ground: 74% karstic or fissured aquifer, medium productivity; 11% karstic or fissured aquifer, high productivity; 11% practically impermeable.
Choosing where to drill takes a hydrogeologist.
