Keywords: Geographic Information Systems, training of GIS, national se

Abstract: The application of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is widespread in various areas of socio-economic life of people. Much of the information that people handle on a daily basis is spatial. This raises the need to pay attention to the training of specialists in various fields of activity, management and work with spatial data through the use of GIS. Basically, the use of GIS in the process of teaching students is most prevalent in Earth Sciences and in particular Geography. The widespread use of GIS in national security and defense gives us reason to argue that the use of GIS is necessary in the process of educating students in this professional field. On this basis, the need for training students in National Security through the use of GIS is derived. Several open source GIS Applications have been reviewed and analyzed, based on a survey of trainers and users of open source GIS and web-based GIS. The specifics that the training must meet during its various stages are commented.
