The need to capture, integrate, and effectively use knowledge in every occupation has become key to maintaining a competitive advantage in the market. The presented article aims to show the concept of events in the process of supporting decision-making presented in scenarios of possible development of the city of Zielona Góra (three scenarios that consider different development alternatives) while maintaining the overarching goal of sustainable development in urban areas. The article uses a theoretical model of the city of Zielona Góra built using graphs. The analysis returned three ‘if–then’ theoretical city development scenarios. Spatial knowledge, information, and data have been important throughout history. Still, as technology becomes easier to access, the requirement to make knowledge available inline and online for their ongoing activities has become a significant modern scientific industry and academic challenge. Scenarios enable graphical representation and prediction of the influence of strengthened or weakened groups of strategic decisions.}, type={Article}, title={Modelling City Development: Strategic Spatial Decision Support Tools}, URL={http://czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/134134/19_Teka_tom_specjalny_2024.pdf}, doi={10.24425/tkuia.2024.152202}, keywords={city, cognitive map, FCM, strategic development, supporting the decision-making process}, }
