Abstract. In 2020, the European Union adopted the European Union digitalization strategy (Digital Decade) until 2030, where an important role is assigned to digitalization and planning for the sustainable development of rural areas. Ukraine, on the one hand, is an agrarian state, and on the other, it has determined the European vector of the country’s development. Therefore, digitization and planning of sustainable development of rural areas is a priority task for Ukraine. The project involves the development of methodology and information technologies for geospatial analysis of the state and planning of the development of rural areas and communities based on satellite and other geospatial and socio-economic information, taking into account climate changes, the ecological situation and the features of the economic development and infrastructure of the regions. The developed information technologies will be implemented in a cloud environment, and the results of the analysis will be presented on a dashboard that will be tested for pilot areas. The dashboard will be developed on free open source software and can become an important tool for digitalization and development planning of territorial communities. The developed information technologies will provide for interconnection interfaces with other geoinformation systems and the possibility of scaling to the entire territory of Ukraine.
