It will be argued that GIS technology will have to be embedded in the framework of Spatial Decision Support Systems (SDSS) to become a more complete tool for spatial planning & policy making. After a short discussion of mainstream urban GIS applications and a review of the principal characteristics of SDSS, two examples of recent ITC research in this field will be describes : a prototype SDSS for school siting and a knowledge based GIS for urban property valuation. Both examples are integrated systems composed of a GIS, a modelbase, a domain specific user interface and a proprietary, rule-based expert system shell. The examples clearly indicate that an SDSS provides an environment where the check-list like part of planning and the generation of alternative scenarios can be handled by the system thus releasing the planner to concentrate on strategic tasks. Whether SDSS' will evolve to become really intelligent planning machines', however, remains to be seen. Much will depend on the particular application and the political context of the decision making environment.
