The investor atlas

What an investor asks, researched.

In research — sources cited, not yet in the verified archive

A whole layer of research — read from public sources, every claim cited with the date it was consulted — that is not archive yet: unverified, carrying no provenance numeral, and marked so in every room where it appears.

The territory

The country, department by department.

All 22 departments with their real boundaries — not a drawn outline — projected from CONRED's operational data. Over them, the one thing the archive can certify: the departments the most recent State of Prevention decree names in its own title.

Map of Guatemala by department, showing the departments named in the archive's most recent State of Prevention decreeAll 22 departments with their real boundaries — not a drawn outline — projected from CONRED's operational data. Over them, the one thing the archive can certify: the departments the most recent State of Prevention decree names in its own title.

Department

Point at a department — or tab through them — and its reading appears here.

Layer in research: 33 places transcribed from the investment atlas, 26 of them with a marker. Every marker is deliberately offset and a hairline runs back to its anchor — the department, or the point this map already anchors: the research publishes no coordinates and guessing one is forbidden.

The archive's most recent State of Prevention decree, no. 6-2026, published Apr 21, 2026, names 5 departments in its title: Guatemala, Escuintla, Izabal, San Marcos, Huehuetenango. Duration declared in the title: 15 days. See the decree at source

Places the research does not put in a department7
research

The atlas names no department for 7 records: a park given only as a road kilometre, a customs post given only as the border it stands on. Guessing a coordinate is forbidden, so they carry no marker — and they print here so that none is hidden.

  • Guatemala metropolitan area; exact location n.d. (announced Aug 2026)

    The dossier does not publish its exact location, so this entry carries neither department nor marker. Every specification is a promotional claim — verify. Prices not public.

    Revista Summa — ÍNTEGRO lanza el primer parque industrial dentro de una ciudad de 10 minutos · consulted

  • Km 27 of the El Salvador highway

    The dossier places it only by road kilometre, naming neither municipality nor department: it is given no department and no marker. Prices not public.

    Idea Central — Parque Industrial CAES · consulted

  • Km 28, CA-9 Norte

    The prices come from a commercial listing (tier c): they serve as a dated market benchmark, not as an official series. The dossier places it only by kilometre, with no municipality: no department, no marker.

    Rialta — bodegas en venta, Parque Logístico Atlántica 28 · consulted

  • Border with Honduras (the dossier does not name the department)

    The dossier does not name the department of this crossing, so the entry carries neither department nor marker. Current waiting times at the crossing are not publicly documented.

  • Border with Honduras (the dossier does not name the department)

    The dossier does not name the department of this crossing, so the entry carries neither department nor marker. Current waiting times at the crossing are not publicly documented.

  • Border with Mexico, CA-2 axis (the dossier does not name the department)

    The dossier does not name the department of this crossing, so the entry carries neither department nor marker. The ANADIE portfolio cited is historical and, in 14 years, only one PPP has been approved. Waiting times at the border with Mexico are not publicly documented.
