Popis: According to its relief, Slovenia is highly variegated and its landscape diverse, andfor this reason it is threatened by numerous natural accidents, among which areavalanches. On the basis of previous findings and with the help of data fromSlovenia’s Geographical Information System, we undertook to determine potentialavalanche surfaces in the Slovene Alps. In so doing, we considered the results ofdata processing on avalanches in the Julian Alps from the avalanche cadastre,other similar studies, and data layers on natural and geographical elements inhigh-mountain regions. In conclusion, we compared simulated and actual potentialavalanche threat areas to assess the validity of our model.
