About article:
The study analyses incidence of land cover classes in Slovakia in relation to three morphometric parameters of relief – elevation, slope and aspect. The working scale is close to 1:50 000 – 1:100 000 and is related to the applied GIS national databases – digital model of relief with grid size 50 meters and land cover mapped by the CORINE methodology. The overlay of the GIS databases, computing the basic statistical parameters (minimum, maximum, mean, range) and frequency analyses presented in the tables and graphs reveal new findings that are compared to the existing empirical experience. The study provides an insight into the frequency distribution of individual land cover classes in respect to the elevation, slope and aspect, pointing to the limits of their occurrence and dominance. The correct interpretation of the results is supported by providing examples of some logical and positional inconsistencies that are related to the methodology of creating the used databases and their analyses. The possibilities to identify these inconsistencies directly during the land cover mapping are discussed. The advantage to analyses the spatial relation between the databases is documented on several examples.
