Abstract
Strongly paracompact metrizable spaces are characterized in terms of special $S$-maps onto metrizable non-Archimedean spaces. A similar characterization of strongly metrizable spaces is obtained as well. The approach is based on a sieve-construction of “metric”-continuous pseudo-sections of lower semicontinuous mappings.
