Abstract The service sector is considered the basis for the urban society facade; this is because of the distinct characteristics of Khartoum state from the remaining states of the Sudan as a society of knowledge of multiple cultures, customs and traditions. This society is coming from different spatial and geographical sites in terms of form and quantity. Therefore, it is incumbent to deal with this mixture for provision of service in tandem with these migrations from the states and adaptation of the markets with the expected capacity for each financial year, for the realisation of welfare to the consumer and the trader, besides, putting into consideration the strategic plans for the different coming generations. Together with the technological development in the filed of infonnation and communication technology, it has been incumbent for the existence of a mechanism for coping with these developments and to be engaged in the management of the market in the technological manner which is liable for developing according to the social conditions which are manifested in the population census and the migrations to the capital of the Sudan etc. This study aims at using the geographical information system in the management of the economic, social, administrative and areal markets information so as to enable the decision-makers to manage the fees and services for the maintenance of the public property and providing the best services to the dealers. A geographical information system was built to provide spatial data of the markets sites and the trade shops inside the market and the relevant trading sites, to facilitate the work of the administrative units, thus controlling the service in the process of the (presentation, collection and development) and the treatments according to the annual circular of the Legislative Assembly representing the prescribed items of collection, conducting the possible analysis such as knowing natural phenomena surrounding the market or the trading shops in special manner which ‘is helping the sen/ice provider ‘for its efficient management with appropriate human resources of less cost and more development. Likewise descriptive data manifested in the data base of the states, localities, administrative units, markets, trade shops, traders, collectors and the due payments items, in addition to digital maps which are linked with the whole tables of the descriptive data base. To complete the requirements of this study data were collected through the personal interviews and the filed visits to the relevant authorises for building the models which were used in the system with the (descriptive and spatial) data base, which helped in building a geographical data base which its data were represented in the _digital map which was used in the geographical application. In this study, the preparation of the digital geographical maps was achieved by using the Arc Gis 10 program, and benefitting from the possibilities of its tools in the geographical retrieval of the paper maps. These tools are represented in the process of drawing, editing and building digital maps in the form of layers, where each layer represents spatial geographical phenomenon linked to the descriptive data bases. And for building the information system an Oracle program was used for building and managing of a data base of the state markets and screens for the input of the descriptive data related there to. i Among the main findings which were reached by the study, is that the use of the technological systems of the geographical information for the
