key words: system of spatial planning, land information system, planning permission, INSPIRE.

Summary:

The article discusses the issue of spatial planning in communes. The opportunities of making spatial databases for the purposes of record of planning permission are presented. The presented solution allows for the collection and processing of spatial data in geographical information systems at the local, regional, and national government level.The analysis shows the possibilities of creation of database on the example of selected rural commune. This commune has not kept a record of the planning permission in electronic version. The case study used in the research allows presenting the sample spatial database that can be used in the commune management. This is due to the fact that geographical information systems are becoming an increasingly popular tool for the administrative decision-making process in commune offices. These tools allow for easier access to data and faster and multi-faceted use of it in the office work.An example of the Szczutowo commune shows the possibility of using a spatially referenced data resource in the electronic way. However, it is important that local authorities after hearing about this kind of tool wished to use it in their daily work. The ArcGIS software was used in the presented example, but it can be replaced by open source solutions.
