What aerial photographs can reveal about the state of habitats in Šumava National Park?
Hamarčák, Mário ; Křenová, Zdeňka (advisor) ; Kindlmann, Pavel (referee)
The utilization of remote sensing in the field of nature conservation and landscape management has recently increased tremendously. Possibility of implementing data obtained by remote sensing in GIS has created an increasingly powerful tool also for appropriate management of protected areas. This bachelor thesis delivers a brief overview of remote sensing methods, projects that use these applications and the possibility of their application in practice. Also examples of research activities in the field of remote sensing aimed primarily at protecting and monitoring the state of forests are presented. Finally, a draft methodology for the analysis of changes in habitat qualities in the area of interest, the Šumava National Park, is proposed. Keywords: Habitats, Management of protected areas, Habitats for Natura 2000, GIS, Aerial photographs, Remote sensing

Assessing changes in conditions of the Šumava NP forests managed by the Kašperské Hory Municipality Forests, Ltd.
Hamarčák, Mário ; Křenová, Zdeňka (advisor) ; Kindlmann, Pavel (referee)
The utilization of remote sensing in the field of nature conservation and landscape management has recently increased tremendously. Possibility of implementing data obtained by remote sensing in GIS has created an increasingly powerful tool also for appropriate management of protected areas. This thesis focus on the assessment of changes in forest habitats in the Šumava National Park, which are managed by the private owner the Kašperské Hory Municipality Forests, Ltd. comparing orthophotos from the years 2011 and 2015 in the GIS. The changes were evaluated using the methodology proposed in my bachelor thesis "What aerial photographs can reveal about the state of habitats in Šumava National Park?" (2013), to which this work continues. In this case only changes of the Third and fourth category, characterizing active forest operations, were analyzed. Changes were studied both at the level of the NP zonation and at the level of Natura 2000 habitats. The second part of this study is based on field surveys, in which the effects of forestry measures applied in the first and the second zones were investigated. Several parameters were recorded in each study plot, c, but especially the amount of retained woody debris and tree regeneration, the most important parameters of forest ecosystem quality, were...
