Sažetak
Zadar County abounds with various speleological objects, which have been systematically investigated for many years. These objects differ greatly in their main characteristics (depth, length, hydrological and geological features, etc.). So far, a systematic statistical and spatial analysis of the data collected has not been done. The main objective of this paper is to create a digital database of the explored caves in order to conduct a spatial analysis. The aim is to determine and analyze the spatial distribution of caves in Zadar County in respect to geological and hydrological characteristics of this research area, and to infer which types of caves dominate in this area. Research is based on statistical analysis of the existing data on explored caves in Zadar County which are obtained from the archives of Speleological section Liburnija, and on the use of modern information systems, primarily ArcGIS. As the result, various maps of general settings and spatial distribution of caves in Zadar County are made. All caves were formed in well- stratified Cretaceous limestones. Characteristics of caves are given through their basic geological, hydrological and morphological types, together with the observation that derived from the conducted research. An interrelation between regional tectonic stress and hydrologic characteristics of the area on the distribution and types of caves is perceived.
