Summary/Abstract: The paper presents the history of Slovenian research for the Slavic Linguistic Atlas (OLA) in the context of the development of Slovenian linguistic geography. The theoretical and methodological impact of this international project has given rise to a profound modernisation of linguistic analysis and influenced the presentation of dialect material and changes to the phonetic notation system. The problem of adequate presentation of Slovenian dialect material in the OLA is analysed from a variety of different perspectives – from the density of network datapoints to the basic principles of the geographical presentation of linguistic facts.
