It describes why monitoring is needed, what is possible to monitor, who is active in the monitoring process and briefly described possibilities for monitoring. Applicability of the concept is confirmed by practical implementation of GIS monitoring system focused on energy efficiency spatial aspects in the city of Poprad. The article particularly summarizes preliminary outputs of international project Bhenefit supported by Interreg Central Europe programme. The project is focused on improving sustainable management approaches of historic built areas and looking for novel solutions improving decision-making and managing processes efficiency, through monitoring and assessing, risk prevention, environmental sustainability, conservation and re-use.
