This study presents the results of the application of information technology to assess the urban development potential of the territory on the example of the city of Tomsk. A two stages GIS analysis of the territory of a large administrative district of the city of Tomsk was carried out. At the first stage, an assessment was made of the needs of the territory of the Oktyabrsky District for social infrastructure facilities. The second step, based on the results of the assessment, was the procedure for finding a land plot for the construction of a general education institution (school) in the residential quarter. Information systems used to search for a land plot for school construction are described and analyzed. Prospects for the development of a GIS resource were identified, in which data on social infrastructure elements for the entire city of Tomsk and the Tomsk region will be combined in a map format using data from GIS analysis methods.
