Journal Title: Geographia Napocensis - Year 2012, Vol 0, Issue 2

Abstract

Post-industrial landscapes in the Czech Republic – A GIS assisted search for present state. Using dditional datasets on industrial areas in CORINE, brownfields, human-made landforms, undermined sites, open air  ining sites, contaminated sites and industrial architectural heritage, 128 examples of postindustrial  andscapes (PILs) were identified on the Czech territory. All the adopted data sets were preprocessed for the GIS mapping procedure. These PILs were subdued to the genetic classification. One- to  our-word-names were applied to describe individual PIL types. Their geographic distribution was analyzed in the Czech Republic and their location compared with selected natural landscape features.
