Geographical space can be described with the Geographic Information System (GIS). It consists of software, hardware, data, algorithms, procedures for processing information and accessibility, as well as the people who use the system and the legal, technological and organisational procedures. GIS is commonly applied in such studies as “Environmental Protection Programmes”, and in numerous reports and documents regarding spatial planning, thematic tasks, modelling of natural phenomena and other management-associated actions (Żero, 2011). It is a significant help for specialist and policymarkers to better understand some phenomena.
