Abstract

The paper presents some techniques and methods of geographic informatics systems, adapted and applied to the regional development applications. The characteristics of spatial databases, as they are required for regional applications are presented in the first part of the paper. Methods of displaying spatial data are compared and GIS procedures are described. The main techniques available in the GIS and useful for regional data visualization are exemplified. It is presented a case study that illustrates the use of GIS for analyzing the concentration of economic activities, based on employment datasets, for various branches in Romania’s counties.
