    The paper deals with an error analysis for the Stokes equation. Two methods are discussed, the first one based on a suitable evaluation of the residual of the finite element solution, and the second one based on solution of the local Stokes problem involving the residual of the finite element solution. Numerical examples show the efficiency of both methods for estimation of the error and for controlling self-adaptive mesh refinement process.
