This research represents the results of field work conducted in the period from March 29 to May 29. 2020, to determine and record the location of illegal waste disposal sites in the municipalities of Istočno Novo Sarajevo and Istočna Ilidža. The location of illegal waste disposal sites was analyzed based on two groups of factors: space exposure and space sensitivity. The analysis included following exposure factors: distance from urban settlements, distance from roads and population density and sensitivity factors: land cover, hydrogeological characteristics of the substrate, distance from springs and watercourses and land slope. In addition to the location of illegal waste disposal sites, it was analyzed the potential vulnerability of space based on both groups of factors. Final map of spatial vulnerability was created using multi-factor analysis. This work emphasizes the possibility of using easily accessible devices for recording the locations of illegal waste disposal sites, as well as the importance of geographic information systems in the analysis and monitoring of the state of the environment. Based on the example presented in the work, the possibility of applying a similar model on the territory of other municipalities is given, with the aim of preventing the negative consequences of pollution on human health and the environment.
