Abstract: The main purpose of the paper is to provide an easy-to-use and simple instrument, accessible to non-expert users interested in urban sprawl analysis. Thus, answers to the following questions are proposed: Is it possible to measure urban sprawl using Urban Atlas data exclusively? If so, how such a measure looks like? How easy is to compute urban sprawl by means of the proposed measure? How can be applied to Romanian cities?
