The paper provides an accuracy assessment of the Soil Sealing Layer (SSL), a map of impervious surfaces in most of Europe (Fig. 1). It focuses on the extent of mapped built-up area and the accuracy of built-up area mapping as a function of the soil sealing threshold applied, the spatial resolution used, and the spatial configuration of built-up areas mapped. The results from the stratified random sampling comparison of SSL with aerial orthophotos derived for Slovakia are compared with those for other countries and complemented by "complete coverage" comparisons in three 6x6 km study areas in Slovakia (Fig. 2)

The issue of defining functional regions in
Hungary is presented in this paper, which
contains detailed methodological description with
the help of relevant studies from the Czech
Republic and Slovakia. The use of Smart’s
measure together with the CURDS algorithm and
the relatively new concept of trade-off constraint
function with four different sets of parameter
values provided four optional solutions for this
issue, based on the analysis of daily travel-to-work
flows from the 2011 census. The resulting regions
correspond to the micro-regional level and give
valuable additions to the discussion about
regionalization. The paper provides basic
descriptive statistics for each of the four variants
of functional region systems, which enables their
overall evaluation (seeing advantages and
disadvantages) and mutual comparison (seeing
similarities and differences), and thus facilitates an
informed debate on future work in functional
regionalisation in Hungary carried out with
respect to different purposes.
