Abstract
The aim of this chapter is to provide the reader with a basic overview of the use of geospatial technologies for geoparticipation of citizens. In the first part, the whole issue is set within the broader concept of traditional spatial planning, followed by an overview of new approaches, i.e. participation, smart city, geodesign and spatial analysis (and simulations and models). In the second part, the reader is offered an overview of selected technologies (tools, applications and programs) used for data collection and further for their analytical processing, modelling and visualisation within the geodesign method. The chapter does not aim to provide a complete list of tools, but rather to show the great diversity of possible applications and solutions.
