One of the inevitable assumptions to secure environment control in cities is mapping of polluted and by other degradation affected soils. This tool facilitates indication and detection of the areas, which represent environmental and health hazard for urban population. On the case of the city of Bratislava the contribution demonstrates methodical procedure of environmental risk assessment resulting from soil. It is based on differentiation and delineation of pedo-urban ecosystems (incl. urban pedotope consideration) and processing of several information sources including proper soil survey, sampling and analysis of surface contamination.The basis for urban soil contamination is represented by creation of two-type pedo-urban ecosystem categorization: (1) ecosystem categorization respecting real and potential soil contamination, (2) ecosystem categorization regarding areas potentially endangered by environmental risks resulting from soil. As a mapping outcome map of environmental risks resulting from soils in the scale of 1:25,000 is presented. Considerable part of the urban soil quality indication is application of legislation measures for urban soil protection. However, these are absent in Slovakia.
