Comparative analysis of the impact of slope inclination and altitude on long-term land use changes in Czechia

Auteur :
ŠTYCH, P.

Description :
The aim of this article is to compare the effects of altitude and slope inclination on the spatial distribution of selected categories of land use. This study is based on czechia’s lucc database 1845–1948–1990–2000. The database contains nearly 9,000 basic territorial units (Btus) and 8 lucc categories that can be compared in all of the time periods mentioned. For the purpose of calculating the average altitude and slope inclination of all Btus, a digital terrain model (DtM) of czechia was created using interpolation methods. - (EN)
