A fully conservative, high resolution approach to front tracking for systems of nonlinear conservation laws in two space dimensions is described. Within the proposed algorithm a uniform Cartesian grid with some cells divided into two or more subcells is used. The choice of cells to be divided is based on information about propagation of strong waves from the solution of Riemann problems. After the construction of this slightly irregular grid a high resolution finite volume method is applied. Finally, some numerical examples are presented. Hereby, the Euler equations of gas dynamics serve as a model problem.
