%X The orientation of spatial development policies in Romania isgoverned by the directions established in the European Union by the Lisbon and Gothenburg Strategies and the ESPON Program, and nationally by the principles of the Regional Operational Program and the National Plan of Development. The monitoring of their implementation and the study of their territorial effects require the development of advanced techniques and instruments for the spatial planning of the national, urban and rural territory in order to strengthen the administrative capacity to absorb structural andcohesion funds, as well as the use of informational technology to monitor the development level of Romania with respect to regional development. A set of regional development indicators was proposed for each region, and embedded in a Geographical Information System. This paper synthesizes the results of analyses and proposes actions that should govern regional development in Romania.
