Summary/Abstract: Geographical information systems (GIS) are nowadays one of the most dynamically developing disciplines of deployment of information in public administration. A GIS connection with data on local land use plans and on the study of land use conditions and directions allows to share information about the commune’s spatial planning policy. The consequence of this assumption is the use of a commune’s geoportals for implementing the information functions of documents on spatial planning. This paper presents the analysis of four geoportals with data containing information about spatial planning. The paper also allows to identify best practices in the solutions proposed in selected geoportals, with particular emphasis on the ease of use and speed of data acquisition.
