Assessing quality of soil maps and possibilities of their use for computing vehicle mobility
Original language description
Soils are one of the very important layers of the landscape and have a significant impact on human civilization. Soils affect plant growth, environmental quality, food production, water regime and many other domains. The influence of soils on possibility of movement of vehicles is very important especially for the military and integrated rescue systems. The aim of this paper is to explain the basic effects of soils on the movement of vehicles, their relation to other components of landscape and weather phenomena. Researching the issue proceeds with comparing the quality of different soil maps and verification of data in maps using soil probes in selected locations. The main data sources are the Special military database of soils and the Digital soil map at scale 1 : 50 000. The comparison results reveal significant differences in soil classification and representation of soil areas in these two sources. Although the Digital soil map shows higher reliability in comparison with collected soil probes, measured passability results are not clear in this case. Further measuring of passability and analysing other meteorological elements will be a prerequisite for a final assessment of the effect of soils on passability of vehicles.
