Retail Availability in the South Bohemian Region
ROKŮSKOVÁ, Iva
The main aim of my thesis is to evaluate the availability of a retail network of hypermarkets in South Bohemia region with help of ArcGIS 10.2 software. The retail availability is evaluated by using basic models and tools, that are commonly used in practical application. Availability is evaluated by Huff model, Thiessen polygons, Buffer and network-based on spatial analysis tools called Network Analyst. I researched companies in the region, which have at least one hypermarket. These companies are AHOLD Czech Republic, a.s., Globus ČR, k.s., Kaufland Česká republika, v.o.s. a Tesco Stores ČR, a.s. The outcome is analysis of the availability of the selected type of retail units in the South Bohemia region and also proposing of modifications. I found that retail availability in this region is on the adequate level. Bachelor thesis also include a theoretical part, which deals with the definition of terms, that I use in this work.

Retail availability in the Vysočina region
BOUZKOVÁ, Renata
This bachelor thesis deals with retail availability in the Vysočina region. Hypermarkets were chosen as retail units. There are 14 hypermarkets in Vysočina and they are operated by three companies: AHOLD Czech Republic, a.s., Kaufland Czech Republic, v.o.s. and Tesco Stores ČR, a.s. The main target is to define the most optimal locations for these hypermarkets and compare it with the current existing locations. Key term definition as retail, gravity models, geographic information system and spatial analysis are in the first part of the project. The practical part of the project is about the various methods of how to determine the retail availability. This is realized by application of Thiessens polygons, packaging zones in hypermarkets (buffers), service zones modeling using network analysis tools in the Network Analyst and application of Huff's gravity model. It is important to get experience with the user environment of software ArcGIS, which has been used for analyzes and after that for maps visualization. Based on the results are recommended possible solutions how to improve the future configuration of the retail network.
