The land-use mapping method based on the interpretation of satellite imagery is described. Out of various processes applied for obtaining the information on parcelation and thematic contents of the land-use map, the visual interpretation of multispectral false colour composite (FCC) of LANDSAT TM was used. The practical applicability of this method has been verified by the construction of land-use maps on the scales 1 : 50 000 and 1 : 200 000 on the territory of Southern Moravia.
