Abstract
Spatial patterns play an important role in the Spatial Data Analysis performed by Geographic Information Systems. This paper presents the analysis of the urban pattern description in the form of UML class diagrams covering the aspects of the hierarchy and generalization of patterns and metapatterns. In addition, the data model for keeping the 3D geometric and topographic data of the urban pattern is reviewed. Subsequently, the article presents a survey of the methods and solutions of spatial analysis, concentrating on the methods based on space syntax, which could be used in further research and computerization of the methodology of urban patterns for Geographic Information Systems.
