Summary


Inventory of soils in Croatia has a very long tradition. Since the first mapping works by Šandor (1911) to the present mapping has been done as a part of scientific, scientific-technical and applied soil mapping projects. By completion of the Basic Soil Map of the Republic of Croatia at the scale of 1:50,000 numerous soil data have been complied providing the conditions for establishing of larger soil information systems and for computer data processing, simulation and modelling. The paper contains the list of soils determined on the territory of the Republic of Croatia by classes, types and subtypes, as well as lower classification units, areas and percentage of basic divisions and types. The original data on pedological profiles and mapping units have been digitally processed on the magnetic tape, and may be used in computers in ArcWiew 3.0 program, processed and synthetized with other resources processed in GIS.
