Given these characteristics this work development an environmental assessment and diagnosis system for the built city, that is based on the analysis of the life cycle (LCA), for made a impact model and making decisions in the urban intervention, linked in the urban intervention, and ecosystem's ecological conditions. The methodology implemented shows the relationship between building volume and environmental impact, for environment reinterpretation of city.
