Summary/Abstract: The aim of the study was to extend the WIT model (land revelance indicators) by a normalization all of comparable values and the addition of two additional sets of weights associated with the extra-experts activity. It enabled creation of ZWIT indicators (normalized land revelance indicators), receiving less flat values from original WIT adopted in the model base. The analysis of ZWIT indicators you can see that in the investigated area: conditions for land cultivation are generally difficult, only a few villages in the municipality of Mszana Dolna have a high value of agricultural indicators, which predestine them to developed area in this scope; conditions for hiking and recreation are relatively good, especially in several villages lying in Gorczański Park Narodowy, either in its lag; conditions for non-agricultural activities are fairly good, except for a few villages of the municipality of Dobra, which are little-populated and lie away from the main traffic routes; weak possibilities of balanced growth for several villages lying on rural municipalities of Dobra, for whcih ZWIT(S) is not reached value of 40.
