Abstract
The paper deals with the spatial development environmental security assessment employing the Spatial Development Impact Assessment tool and the geographical information systems. The first part includes a more detailed description of the Spatial Development Impact Assessment tool and ESRI - ArcInfo, which were the basis for elaborating the case study. The case study is presented in the second part of the paper, which includes the spatial development environmental security assessment for a fictitious hazardous waste incineration plant located in the zone of Moravian-Silesian region of the Czech Republic. The acquired outcomes are presented in the final part of the paper together with the proposed measures to be taken in order to reduce the potential risk of intended spatial development.

Summary
At present there are a number of anthropogenic phenomena having the negative impacts on population. The following chapter includes the most significant materials and methods, which were the basis for the presented case study on the Spatial Development Impact Assessment Tool Applied in the Spatial Development Environmental Security Assessment. The assessment process algorithm defines basic relations among individual elements of the process, which may be divided into two basic groups: 1) the Hazards Group, which includes individual negative aspects of spatial development [8]; and 2) the Assets Group, which includes individual environmental elements. The algorithm itself consists of individual steps which result in determining the level of potential risk that the environment will be damaged due to intended spatial development (see Fig. 1). The Catalogue of Hazards and Assets Groups consisting of individual categories and elements is another significant part of the Spatial Development Security Assessment tool.
