This paper evaluates the influence of socio-geographic factors (quantifiable and spatially explicit) on long-term land use changes. In the present quantitative evaluation of the influence of these factors, the researchers (e.g.
Bičík et al. 2010) have so far used especially the data on the territorial exposedness of Czechia, which refer to the 1980s (Hampl, Gardavský, Kühnl 1987), while the dramatic change of this indicator in the evaluated period from 1845 to the present was neglected. To obtain more tangible results, it is necessary to create adequate models for other time horizons.
The result is an evaluation of the relation between changes in the chosen socio-geographic indicator of the area's exposedness and changes in land use. Particular attention will be paid to the relic Czech-German national border.
