This paper aims to highlight the advantages of using Geographical Information Systems in the complicated problems of forest land retrocessions. The study is focused on an area of about 400 hectares in Poiana Mărului, Brașov county. This forested area has been identified on the appropriate forestry map, measured in the presence of landowners using two Trimble GPS receivers and parcel plans were created, in order to be sent to OCPI Brașov for approval. Sensible issues hindering the successful completion of this operation were evidenced, with four categories of problems being identified. Each category involves a number of situations which were individually analyzed. Besides the technical and judicial knowledge necessary in find the optimal solutions, the benefits offered by Geographical Information Systems are presented, benefits which give specialists significant opportunities to identify critical issues and make overall verifications. Therefore, the conclusion of this paper is that this modern instrument can be successfully used even in projects of this nature.
