Summary/Abstract: Identification of regional disparities at the level of municipalities is quite complicated, in particular reason to the substantial number of analysed subjects. Standard methods reduce the number of analyzed entities according to pre-selected parameters (cluster analysis, approximation methods, JENKS optimization, etc.), which simplifies objective reality. At the OPF in Karviná, we work with generally applicable methods they allow processing of large-scale regional data. As appropriate appears to be the method of using precedences and the incidences in the system, reduced into a binary matrix, to identify increases and decreases of the values of the analysed factors in the region. On this principle, are consequently in the region identified by the local extrema of the values of the factors and determine their significance relative to the surrounding area. The presented research analyzes 2383 Moravian municipalities, for local extremes were reduced to 1,679 villages. Created virtual infrastructure using ortodrom and reduced deviatilites.
