Abstract: The purpose of this article is to demonstrate that with appropriate assessment and quantification of environmental data and the subsequent utilization of a dynamic optimization process, the impact of territorial corridors on the environment---an issue of controversy between environmentalists and advocates of technological progress---can be minimized.The discussion deals with the data assessment process, the data management and the quantitative model that was used. A case study dealing with the determination of an optimal corridor for a high voltage transmission line is presented, and some of the management aspects relative to this case study are discussed.
