Květoň, Tomáš ; Marada, Miroslav (advisor) ; Kraft, Stanislav (referee)
This diploma thesis studies the issue of spatiotemporal mobility of pensioners in the environment of the city of České Budějovice and its hinterland. This research uses a combination of two methods.

The results are in many cases formed using a combination of data from both research methods. The main results, that relate to the specified individual goals and their consequent hypotheses, deal with the daily rhythms of the spatiotemporal mobility, evaluate the use of vehicles with regard to...

KVĚTOŇ, Tomáš
This bachelor thesis evalues the everyday spatial mobility of population in the selected region of the Czech Republic, in this case ORP Blatná using two methods.
