In the year 2009, the current government of Ecuador proposes decentralized autonomous governments, requirements planning and management in their respective territories, so that their use is sustainable. Thus, the demand for inputs of statistical and geographical information has been a priority of this government level. Thus we have, the present contribution aims to provide research information inputs that support the planning and zoning of the Province of Santa Elena, Planning Area No. 5 -Ecuador. Being one of the priority inputs identifying explanatory factors affecting urban growth, such as biophysical, socioeconomic and accessibility. This is selected as the minimum unit of the pixel information integration and as logistic regression statistical technique. Among the main results we implement standardization, under decreasing linear approach to the homogenization of enhancing accessibility variables selected model and the use of powerful tools of Geographic Information Technologies, which has allowed the implementation of models significant amount of data.
