Abstract
The article presents an analysis of urbanization processes in the Poznan metropolis (Poland) using the Geo-urban centric method. The aim of the study is to broaden our knowledge of the importance of the city center in the research area. The study also makes it possible to evaluate the distribution of urban functions using defined indicators. The samples were collected from 18 communes included in the Poznan metropolis. The research is based on the geo-urban centric methodology combined with an urban query. This methodology is the result of the conceptual and analytical work of the research team of the IAPP PUT. The method is very up-to-date in mapping trends in the distribution of places of service provision. An important feature of the method is the use of information displayed on websites.
