Sažetak
The Republic of Croatia has several levels of administrative subdivision. The first level of subdivision is into 20 counties and the City of Zagreb. Each county is divided into towns and municipalities, with a total of 128 towns and 428 municipalities. Each city and municipality are further divided into settlements. There are 6757 settlements in Croatia. Every settlement has its own name - an oikonym. Some of them have Upper or Lower adjectives in their name. The focus of this work is to analyse the elevation data of settlement pairs that contain Upper and Lower. The sample for this analysis will be the settlements in four northern Counties of Croatia – Krapina- Zagorje, Koprivnica-Križevci, Međimurje and Varaždin. Only the urban area of a settlement will be analysed, since the topography of unsettled hilly areas can greatly askew the results, especially in the areas surrounding the Ivančica mountain. Primary problem is determining the Upper/Lower pairs of settlements (e.g. Gornja Voća and Donja Voća) ; finding the borders of the examined settlements ; determining their urban areas ; and determining the elevation data of the urban areas. Administrative data is provided by the State Geodetic Administration of the Republic of Croatia. Elevation data used in this analysis is the SRTM digital elevation model. The hypothesis is that the settlement containing Upper in their oikonyms have a greater elevation than those containing Lower.
