Monitoring urban growth process and its patterns for the city of Bucharest was the starting point in our attempt to identify and propose a more general procedure for monitoring this type of process in Romania using remote sensing data. Several important technical aspects such as comparable data sources, comparable algorithms, interoperability issues as well as final presentation standards are discussed. The paper is meant to be considered as a basis for promoting a unitary technical approach concerning urban growth monitoring in Romania using remote sensing data.
