Erosion is a significant environmental challenge in Serbia, shaped by natural and human factors. Pronounced relief, fragile geological substrate, developed hydrographic network, climate characterized an uneven distribution of precipitation throughout the year make this area prone to activating erosion processes flash floods whenever there disruption ecological balance, whether due removal vegetation cover or inadequate land use. Researchers have recorded approximately 11,500 torrents most which were activated during 19th century, period social political change, as well intensive deforestation irrational exploitation resources. By mid-19th effects degradation impossible ignore. As adequate assessment soil intensity initial step developing prevention protection strategy type scope anti-erosion works measures, article presents path that field Serbia has taken from observations through first attempts create Barren Land Cadastre Torrent creation Potential Method (EPM) its modification Dr. Lazarević resulted Map SR 1971 (published 1983).

We compared 1983 2020 maps GIS environment, where change categories analyzed using confusion matrix. The updated mirror shift methodology traditional approach (Lazarević’s modification) modern GIS-based (Gavrilović’s EPM) reflect technological improvements changes use, conservation practices, awareness.

This paper aims to apply Erosion Potential Method (EPM) within a GIS environment determine spatial temporal changes soil erosion coefficient, sediment production transport, identify factors contributing significantly risk Grdelica Gorge for two reference years: 1970 2025. intensity analysed using according Gavrilović. results indicate that area (62.03%) fell into slope category IV (27-70%), with all categories represented.
