Abstract: The present paper highlights the role played by the analysis of the physical-geographic framework available to a community, at a given time, in the strategic territorial planning process. Unlike the evaluation of the community profile, which is based on a set of elements that change over time - population, economy, politics -, the evaluation of the resources associated with the natural environment enjoys their great stability. Methodologically, in the elaboration of the development strategy, the assessment of the natural environment, respectively the potential represented by it, is the starting point. Any Local Development Strategy of an aministraive territorial unit, in the present case the Cudalbi commune in Galati county, is based on the identification of all components that act both as favoring and limiting factors. The diagnosis carried out by the specialists is based on qualitative and quantitative methods of information collection, and the list of monitored indicators corresponds to the geographical studies.
