Nodes: These were able to be traced from messages sent from different cell phones, resulting in a cartography that allows us to locate the largest number of people located between the Teniente Alejandro Velazco Astete International Airport,

Wánchaq Station and the urban center.

Landmarks: These are distributed around the city but like the previous highlighted points, they have a close relationship in the urban core.
