GIS TECHNOLOGY

Application of GIS within the Institute for Urbanism of the Republic of Srpska has been started in 2002. y, with the work on project LIFE – Third Countries funded by European Commission and Ministry for Spatial development, civil engineering and ecology of RS. It included the projects INFRARED and LICENSE. For the projects requirements, there were created the digital terrain models of Vrbas and Trebisnjica river catchments. Based on the gathered data in the field, it was prepared lots of composite maps. (For software tools, there were selected the programs ArcGIS 8 and MIKE BASIN.)

In 2004 year, IURS took part at one more international project - Održivi razvoj kroz eko-turizam (The Study on Sustainable Development through Eco-tourism in Bosnia and Hezegovina). Within this project, it had been worked on preparation of digital models of terrains, ecology maps and the outline of potential tourist destinations with resources. Study area included the region of mountain Velež and catchment of river Plive. Project funded by JICA (Japan International Cooperation Agency).

Currently, it is in progress the development project of GIS tool introduction into the process of preparation of spatial-planning documentation within Institute for Urbanism of RS.  

With introduction of the system design, it will be created the expertise and informatics support to the municipalities – clients of the plans. Introduction of “zoning” as legal category in spatial planning will make GIS to become the necessary tool in preparation and use of urbanism documentation, and therefore, the citizens and potential investors will be provided with faster and more qualitative services.
