The approach mainly focuses on the application of GIS, the database creation and the function used. An evaluation of the existing LGU was done through the examination of a set of scenarios. This approach was applied separately for every region, in order to maintain them. The result of scenarios showed as different spatial possibilities. Based on the criteria set for the New Administrative Territorial Division, the scenario were: the distance to the new center of Municipalities, population, density analysis, time to reach the public service, roads connectivity between the Village and the Cities.
