The purpose of the study is to identify information technology and methodological ways to solve current problems of ensuring an increase in development level of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) in Ukraine. A review of publications of the world scientific community was conducted based on a search in international and domestic scientometric databases, such as Scopus, Web of Science, and the resources of the Vernadsky National Library of Ukraine. A survey of the main stages of GIS development during the independence of Ukraine was carried out. These reviews address the following research questions: a) what time trends do research statistics demonstrate; b) what areas of GIS development and use are covered in the research; c) what governance strategies are reflected in the publications to overcome technological challenges in GIS development. The main results show that foreign researchers pay attention to the GIS development in various thematic categories, in particular, such as computer science and information technology. At the same time, domestic researchers pay more attention to providing general issue of GIS implementation, industry issue, and studying foreign experience. This indicates the existing gap between the practical achievements of GIS implementation in the country and the contribution of domestic scientists and specialists to the technological aspects of this area. In particular, this concerns the formation of information systems for processing spatial data, the analytical component and decision-making support tools. Nevertheless, the results of the review demonstrate that geographic information systems are becoming a key element of the national information infrastructure, which ensures effective management of territories, natural resources, defense and security. The conducted systematic review may be useful for responsible persons, as well as directly for scientists and specialists from various fields involved in the processes of formation and modernization of information technologies, systems and resources, in particular aimed at processing geospatial data.
