Geographical information system (GIS) is a combination of a database and graphical objects organized together so that every object has its record in a database. Management and manipulation with large number of different data related to the space and time made GIS the standard in forestry science and practice in the developed countries. Actual gradation of gypsy moth in Serbia that has spread over hundred thousands of hectares of forests, manifested in different degree of defoliation throughout 2004 and 2005, proves the necessities of GIS introduction in forest protection. In its first phase, GIS application will be limited to tracking and pursuing gypsy moth gradation and facilitation of reclamation efforts.
