In this paper, we present Net2Plan-GIS: an open-source extension of the Net2Plan network planning tool. Net2Plan-GIS permits importing data from Geographical Information Systems (GIS) databases, making them available for network optimization. A use case is presented making use of the GIS data in the city of Cartagena (Spain). User traffic demands and potential antenna locations are estimated from the city layouts. They feed a tentative dimensioning of a 5G backhaul segment.
