Abstract: The graphic representation of the boundaries of urban planning areas is a sufficiently important element of the representation of urban planning as not to allow the slightest hint of doubt or imprecision to arise in regard to the dividing lines it indicates. It can include everything from the growth limit of the urban land as a whole to small inner areas of the city subject to improvement, renovation or change of planning conditions. It is this first concept that the town planner must include/draw on his working plan to begin his task. Throughout the history of urban planning, this first 'boundary' has been represented in various ways using different graphic and/or visual mechanisms. This article presents a journey through the history of the resources used by technicians for their representation and their evolution.
