About article:
Urban soil survey, mapping and classification is a relatively new but dynamically
developing scientific issue worldwide, especially due to increased interest in urban
areas in terms of the quality of life of their inhabitants. This survey also seems to not
be unified and standardized in recent research. We present the methodical procedure
of urban soil mapping, which was primarily based on land cover and land use mapping with using satellite images and subsequently used concept of pedo-urban complex, enabling the mapping of urban soils in large or middle scales. The example of
this mapping method was demonstrated in three cities in Slovakia – Bratislava,
Trnava and Žilina. We also discuss the issue of classification of urban soils including
their diagnostics, which together with their mapping is also inconsistency. Two classification systems, the Slovak Morphogenetic Soil Classification System (MKSP 2014)
and the World Reference Base for Soil Resources (WRB 2015) were used for the soil
map unit`s classification. The created soil maps show a spatial mosaic-like form of
pedo-urban complexes and the alternation of several basic soil units, mixed with areas
with sealed or other degraded soils. Better knowledge and mapping of urban soils is
essential for the development of urban areas and as well as useful tool for urban planning practice.
