In the current society there is more and more effort to introduce, to make use of, and also to develop different information systems (IS). Nowadays it is already impossible to work without support of these systems for most institution of administration, private companies and single businessmen - if they want to be successful in their activities. So implementing and using of this IS become matter of fact. Waste management is one of sections, where these technologies are starting to influence as well. There is a development and implementation of the first IS in the level of single waste generators, regions and national administration as well. It happens to gradual data standardization presently because of unification and compatibility of single systems at all levels. The same situation is in section of Geographic information systems (GIS) as a one of parts of IS-subgroup. First nationwide projects, which can be also used in waste management, are starting to rise in GIS. Also this work is example of connection of GIS with one of waste management section - composting - and it shows possible practical usage on concrete examples.
