Abstract

The work presents the possibilities of implementing the GIS technology in assessing the tourist attractiveness of the selected municipality. In the study, a point classification method was used in the base fields 250×250 of size. The valorisation of the areas of the municipality was carried out based on considering selected elements of the natural environment such as the land form, land use, hydrographic conditions, forest areas and valuable natural areas. Based on the conducted research it has pointed out that about one quarter of the area of the municipality can be characterized by high and very high attractiveness in terms of tourism and recreation development, mainly due to the high altitude of the land form, favourable hydrographic conditions and the presence of forest areas.
