The national urban information system (SIU) maps the land class for 100% of the municipality.
Only the town hall can confirm it, in writing: ask for a certificado urbanístico.
Is there water?
No well or borehole is recorded in Yémeda. That is not proof there is no water: ask local drillers. 3 springs are recorded.
Ground: 31% karstic or fissured aquifer, high productivity; 26% karstic or fissured aquifer, medium productivity; 18% low permeability, local groundwater only; 14% porous aquifer, high productivity; 5.7% porous aquifer, medium productivity; 5.7% practically impermeable.
