The paper establishes the measure of the diachronic correlation between market values of the land and variables able to affect the mechanisms of price formation. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are used to process cartographic representations useful for visualizing the spatial distribution of data, which pertain to the vast area of the Province of Salerno (Italy). The analytical path starts from the collection of information and construction of the datasets, passes through the selection of parameters and for the processing of the maps and can establish quantitatively the levels of correlation between market values and territorial variables. Thus, it provides useful elements for future research, with the aim to generalize the functional relationships between agricultural land values and socio-economic variables through the writing of a value function.
