Engineering geological mapping of the west carpathian landslide areas
Summary Some of the West Carpathian areas are distinguished by a considerable occurrence of slope movements. In these landslide areas the construction of engineering works is preferentially dependent on the conditions of slope stability. The remaining components of the geological environment are manifest only as secondary ones. A suitable engineering geological document for the display of the environment in these areas is an analytical map of slope deformations (Landslides and other slope movements). In Czechoslovakia a particular method has been gradually developed for the preparation of hazard maps in landslide areas. The purpose of the map requires a certain precision and complexity of information which, however, are limited by the map scale. Maps of slope deformations prepared up to the present can be divided into overview maps (more than 1:1000,000), medium scale (1:25,000, 1:50,000), large scale (1:10,000, 1:5,000) and detailed maps (1:500—1:2,000). The overview maps provide general information on slope movements. The medium scale maps serve for urban planning of larger territorial units. The large scale maps are set up in areas of economic importance. They serve as a document for the relocation of engineering structures, for communication lines, etc. They are set up on three independent sheets (map of slope deformations, zoning map and documentary map). Detailed maps are set up within the framework of control of an actual slope deformation. In the contribution are indicated illustrations of maps of slope deformations from various areas of the West Carpathians. It describes the method of their preparation, content and purpose of individual maps.
