The route of cacique llampilanguen (1804): geographical reconstruction of a historical path. by Walter Daniel Melo, Juan Francisco Jiménez, Sebastián Leandro Alioto

“…In zones where the path was not clear, the criterion used kept in mind that, given the transfer conditions at that time, the route used by a group which moved on horseback and carrying animals could only spread through places which had water availability over short distances. The methodology included the use of historical sources with ancient mapuche place names, which in part were thankfully conserved over considerable time; the cartographic base was a SRTM elevation model and Google Earth shots; and the utilized Geographical Information System (GIS) was ArcGIS 10.0, whose buffer tools were used to connect the relevant locations. …”
