Sažetak
We are witnesses of the increasing importance of geographically referenced information which has become indispensable for urban planning, development and management. Current economic crises and uncontrolled urban development raise a demand for responsible and sustainable management of the city. Abandonment of prior functions leads to appearance of vacant sites. Available areas become ‘arenas of opportunities’ as scenes for new housing projects, business functions, commercial and cultural use. At the moment, the City of Zagreb does not have a comprehensive registry of brownfield sites which could be used as an instrument of rational planning and management of the city. Development of such registry is a complex multidisciplinary task which result will produce a new form of spatial knowledge in the city. The ability to access, utilise and visualize spatial data using GIS should be used as an important support to spatial decision making processes.
