Abstract

MISCELLANEA GEOGRAPHICA WARSZAW A 199 6 Vol. 7 Andrzej Richling The map of use of landscape presents relations between land use and landscape pattern. The land use pattern is analysed within the borders of natural units existing in nature (geocomplexes or geosystems). The way of doing it differs fundamentally from the commonly applied analysis of land use within the administrative limits. These maps were worked out with the variable accuracy in various scales. The first general map of this kind was elaborated in the scale 1:750,000 for the area of the former GDR by a team headed by H. Richter (Richter, 1981). In the background of the groups of the types of "natural space" (Naturraumtypen) differentiation of land use was marked. The use of land was considered in division on five main complexes: settlement areas, areas of opencast exploitation of natural resources, agricultural areas, forest complexes and areas of mixed agricultural-forest use.
