Ride out of municipalities in the Czechia to work based on time and distance: Its development in 1991 - 2011.
Dolák, Štěpán ; Marada, Miroslav (advisor) ; Kraft, Stanislav (referee)
This thesis deals with a commuting to work phenomenon and is focused on distance and time consumption of the commuting. In the thesis, with the help of domestic and foreign literature, individual aspects that influence time and distance of work commuting are discussed in detail as well as how has the work commuting changed in time. In the analytical part, using the results of the SLDB, the weighted average distance and weighted average time of commuting to work was calculated for all Czech municipalities in years 2001 and 2011 with the aim of answering an unanswered question of how far and how long the Czechs commute to work, and what are the regional differences of these aspects. Also the time development of the issue is analyzed and the final outputs are presented using tabular overviews and cartographic methods. The final output of the thesis is a typology of municipalities based on aspects of distance and time of commuting, in which municipalities are divided into 9 types. Work commuting kilometer distance has been proven to increase and commuting time to decrease, but the results are significantly different in each region. This is mainly due to traffic congestions in large cities as well as the construction of speed transport infrastructure. Keywords: commuting to work, commuting time,...
Construction of railways on the territory of the Czech and their effect on time-space compression
DOLÁK, Štěpán
The following bachelor thesis discusses construction of railways in Czech republic and its effect on time-space compression and expression in time-space maps. Theoretical section describes evolution of transportation from pre-industrial till post-Fordist era. Reasons of time-space compression, convergence, divergence and distantiation are also described. Theoretical part discusses transport accessibility and construction of railways in wide range from local connections to phase of railway selection. Methodological section first describes collection of data about railway commute from different districts of Czech Republic in years 1900, 1918, 1937, 1950, 1975, 1991, 2001 and 2015. In the next part of the methodological section a formula of weighted time accessibility necessary for creation of time-space maps is introduced. Core of the analytical section lays primarily in maps based on collected data and created in programme ArcMap. These maps show evolution of time accessibility, speed and combination of time and speed expressed in weighted time accessibility. In the end of analytical section, shrinking space based on rail transportation in sphere of time-space maps is described. Analytical section also discusses and compares results where previously mentioned maps are the main source of commentaries. Last section summarizes all achieved findings and reacts to stated hypotheses.
