The aim of this study is to apply the methodology for assessment of environmental impact whether
of a physicochemical nature and on the biodiversity and ecosystems, or whether sociocultural
and economic aspects of the historic towns with tourism interest that are assessed. The automated
method of the RIAM software is used which requires a baseline study of the environment of different
towns to be prepared. In addition, the analysis of the social perception on tourism of the
local people from the course work of students at the UIDE shall be applied. The conclusions of the
case studies undertaken allow for strategic proposals and recommendations to be prepared so
that they can be incorporated into the management plans for tourism in the historic towns with
heritage value.
