The main objective of this bachelor's thesis is to design and create a thematic Atlas of military districts in the Czech republic, including a map key. A sub-objective is to perform an analysis of the portrayal of military districts in the Czech republic on maps of the Stable Cadastre, the 3rd military mapping, aerial photographs from the 1950s and the current orthophoto. At the beginning of the thesis, a literature search on military districts is carried out, which is a necessary starting point for the creation of the thematic part of the Atlas of military districts in the Czech republic. The theoretical part follows, where the definition of military districts and their development is presented. It also includes a description of the functioning military districts of Boletice, Březina, Hradiště and Libavá, focused on history, natural conditions and current military use of the territory. The next part is devoted to the analysis of portrayal of military districts on old maps and aerial photographs. In the practical part of the thesis, methods of creating the atlas are described, which is followed by a discussion and conclusions, where the results of the thesis are summarized and possible improvements and extensions are discussed. Key words: Military district, thematic atlas, thematic cartography, ArcGIS

Poláková, Tereza ; Lysák, Jakub (advisor) ; Šára, Pavel (referee)
Cartographic representation of hydrographic features in the state map series Abstract The goal of this bachelor thesis is to create a proposal to completion digital topographic database ZABAGED for hydrographic features. The first part is devoted to introduction to map keys of large scale Czech topographic maps since 1950s and also with the content of database ZABAGED. The emphasis is also put on historical context of new mapping and formation of digital database. The second part deals with a representation of hydrographic features and their guidance in digital topographic databases in four foreign countries. The practical part is devoted to designing a completion of attributes and features to ZABAGED. In view of the new attributes a cartographic representation of selected hydrographic features for the large scale maps is designed. All proposals were created considering the regulation of European Commission INSPIRE Data Specification on Hydrography. Keywords: hydrographic features, cartography, topographic databases, comparative study

Redistricting Bodies and Redistricting Reform in the U.S.: Where Are We Now and the Way Forward
Šára, Pavel ; Bečka, Jan (advisor) ; Calda, Miloš (referee)
While drawing electoral districts and its special type called gerrymandering (redistricting with a certain purpose in mind) has been present in American politics since the founding of the United States, it has recently received a lot of attention and criticism. Gerrymandering has been accused of ruining electoral competition, contributing to the gridlock in Congress, and hampering the spirit of American democracy. Moreover, legislators responsible for redistricting are frowned upon for choosing their own voters and thus ruining the purpose of the electoral process. Redistricting currently follows certain principles, the most important of which and the only two recognized at the federal level are population equality and minority representation. These principles were designed to limit the redistricting bodies when drawing districts. State legislatures remain the most common redistricting institution. However, for the criticism that they face various redistricting commissions with different powers were established. The current trend in the redistricting reform is to delegate the redistricting power to independent commissions which can adopt a redistricting plan without the consent of a legislature and whose members have no connections to politics. Competition and partisanship are the two most discussed...

Matyáš, Michal ; Lysák, Jakub (advisor) ; Šára, Pavel (referee)
Positional accuracy assessment of underground water courses in ZABAGED Abstract The aim of this bachelor thesis is to provide a comprehensive view of underground water courses through the eyes of a topographer and a cartographer with an emphasis on the evaluation of the position representation of this phenomenon. The first part of the thesis is devoted to the detailed introduction to ZABAGED datasets and to the research of other foreign topographic databases with an emphasis on the representation and display of underground water courses on topographic maps of medium and large scale. In the second part of the thesis, there are presented five basic methods of comparison of positional accuracy of lines in geoinformation systems. The practical part of the thesis includes a proposal of typology of underground water courses, as a comprehensive concept of different types of underground water courses, which is used for the correct evaluation of the position accuracy analysis on the selected relevant sample of the underground water courses in ZABAGED in the last part of this work. Keywords: underground water course; positional accuracy; topographic database
