Assessment of the selected landscape change types of Slovakia was based on application of two vector databases of the CORINE land cover (CLC) at scale 1:100 000. The first represents the 1990s (CLC90 - generated by visual interpretation of the Landsat TM satellite images), the second is from the 1970s (CLC70 - generated by retrospective analysis according to the CLC90 data and Landsat MSS satellite images from the 1970s). Overlay of the quoted databases made it possible to identify land cover changes, from which seven landscape changes: intensification of agriculture, extensification of agriculture, urbanisation (industrialisation), enlargement (exhaustion) natural resources extraction, afforestation, deforestation and other changes were derived following reclassification of land cover changes. The article documents the results of evaluations of the changes intensification in agriculture and deforestation in Slovakia in the periods of 1970s and 1990s.
