Abstract: A knowledge-based fuzzy system for the purpose of municipalities classification is presented in this paper. It illustrates how fuzzy systems can be used for municipalities classification and ranking tasks. The application of the system is explained by the example of classification in one region in the Slovak Republic. The original problem of estimating and rough planning of road maintenance requirements in winter was examined. The suggested methodology is supported by GIS technology for visualization of the ranked municipalities to offer a better view on the territorial distribution of the obtained solution. A disadvantage of fuzzy systems for the end user is in their complexity. This disadvantage has been analysed and a solution is suggested to overcome it. The proposal deals with the integration of information system and self developed fuzzy system. This integration enables creating the model, importing input data, processing rules and presenting results in tables and maps in one integrated tool. Copyright Springer-Verlag 2010
