A contribution provides basic information about soil cover from the General Survey of Agricultural Soils (KPP) and its consequential processing by GIS (ArcGIS Desktop) means. The goal of the paper is to show some methods of maps compilation for middle scales and methods of data preparation in ArcIMS. As a pilot projects have been chosen two regions: Šurany and Trebišov. Original KPP data occurring in analogue form have been converted into digital form in Soil Science and Conservation Research Institute, which is owner of all background data (reports, maps, tabs, etc.). These converted digital data were utilized for GIS application intending to compile middle-scale maps. This technology requires except to some knowledge in soil science also GIS skill and experience. Methodology of pedo-geographical regionalization has been used for digital map compilation as original KPP maps were mapped in the scale 1:5 000, or 1:10 000. New compiled digital maps have been generalized for scales 1:250 000 or 1:50 000 as soil associations. Created maps have been displayed on map server in ArcIMS. Website map server provides users review of the basic soil maps by so-called html-reviewer, i.e. interactive maps are jointed with subsistent database. User can use various facilities of viewing by PC tools (enlarge of level, diminishing of level, switch on active level, switch on legend, information about soil types, soil texture, parent materials, etc.). Inherent advantage of map server is its use by the wide range of users who have got sufficient software and hardware equipment and Internet access, as well.
