Linguistic analysis of weather forecasts as an informative text. Action research
Zítka, Martin ; Hájková, Eva (advisor) ; Janovec, Ladislav (referee)
1 ABSTRACT This thesis is named Linguistic Analysis of weather forecasts and is divided into two parts, theoretical and practical. In the first part of this thesis readers can find general knowledge of field of media: the term media communication is defined, specifics are described, it is talked about a media product, content and meaning. After that we mention media audience with respect to the pupil as a special type of recipient. The following is a characteristic of television weather forecasts within the media communication and analysis of its typical means of expression. The last part of this section is the description of the school curriculum, especially the media education, because the research was made in the schools and the main goals of this thesis were based on requirements of curricula of the Czech Republic. The second part presents the motivation of investigation and the method of the action research that was chosen. The largest part of this section is the part containing the whole evaluation and interpretation of the results of particular activities, both propaedeutic and proactive with the media product. The main goals of this thesis are the development and subsequent application of an action plan with projected activities for the Czech language teachers at primary school, especially in the...

Information value and acceptability in weather forecast
Bělohlávková, Kateřina ; Janovec, Ladislav (advisor) ; Palkosková, Olga (referee)
7. SUMMARY This diploma thesis The information value and acceptability of forecasting is divided into a theoretical and a practical part. In the theoretical part the forecasting is described as a product of television newscast. I deal with the fact of forecasting entering the media communication. I deal with the information value that forecasts bring and show the way a piece of information is transferred from a producer to an addressee relating to the process of coding and decoding. I describe the acceptability of forecasts and its elements influencing comprehension. In relation to acceptability, textual linguistics is discussed in a separated subchapter. The last theoretical part deals with semiotics and semantics. These disciplines deal mainly with meaning and sings and that is the reason why they are not important only in the theoretical part but also in an analyzing part of this thesis. The analyzing part is based on semiotic survey analysis dealing with individual components of forecasts (visual, audio and audio-visual). The aim of this thesis is to find out which of components of forecasting brings the highest information value to respondents and which is best comprehensible for addressees. The survey results demonstrate that it is the audio forecasting that has a high information value and brings...

Precipitation Forecast from Weather Radar
Tábi, Matej ; Milička, Martin (referee) ; Burget, Radek (advisor)
The aim of this bachelor thesis is a web application, which solves a short-time precipitation forecast for Czech Republic. The forecast is created for the next one hour and consists of four radar frames with a 15 minutes distance between them. The task is solved in three main steps. In the first step, the actual information from CHMI webpages is obtained. In the second step, the recieved data is processed - precipitation fields are identified and in the last step, movement vectors of these precipitation fields are calculated. The result of the thesis is a fully working web application. The forecast success rate is at the level from 30 to 60%.

Weather Forecast Mashup
Gajdušek, Radek ; Svoboda, Pavel (referee) ; Kajan, Rudolf (advisor)
The goal of bachelor's thesis "Weather forecast - mashup" is the design and implementation of application, which gathers data from multiple sources in XML format using Silverlight technology. In addition to the description of the individual stages of application development the thesis also contains the clarifying of the term mashup, analyses Web 2.0 and defines the basic terms of weather forecast. Attention is paid to Silverlight and its comparison with the main competitor in the market. The thesis also includes the evaluation of the achieved results, together with thinking about the future possible application development.

Simple FITkit Based Weather-Station
Podivínský, Jakub ; Mičulka, Lukáš (referee) ; Strnadel, Josef (advisor)
In this bachelor thesis, the design and implementation of FITkit-based home weather-station is presented. In the thesis, various methods of measuring meteorological quantities are detailed and discussed together with advanteges and disadvantages of common electronic sensor parameters. Then, weather forecast methods are classified and principle of a simple weather-forecast algorithm based on the atmospheric pressure measurement and analysis is described and discussed according to its realization by the means of the FITkit platform. At the end of the thesis, design and realization of an additional hardware needed to operate the station on basis of FITkit is described.

Short-Term Forecast Based on Image of Sky
Volf, Martin ; Španěl, Michal (referee) ; Hradiš, Michal (advisor)
The bachelor's thesis submitted is dedicated to weather forecast based only on a video stream. At first, basic weather information which the sky can provide are presented. Cloud types including their properties and methods which the sky can most efficiently describe are dealt with. At second, basic circumstances between weather information are discussed. The objective of this work is to prove accuracy of the methods used for gaining data from the video stream and to find out whether it could be possible to use them for forecasting the rain, air humidity and sunshine for the period of time one hour later.

Flight Management System Model
Franěk, Lukáš ; Kaňa, Zdeněk (referee) ; Klusáček, Stanislav (advisor)
Diplomová práce shrnuje nejdůležitější informace o letectví, jako například základní používané termíny, popis letových fází apod. V této práci je popsán flight management system, jeho funkce a schopnosti vytvořit cenově příznivý a současně absolutně spolehlivý letový plán. V další části práce je nastíněna důležitost předpovědi počasí pro bezpečnou a současně cenově příznivou leteckou dopravu. Tato práce je vytvořena v programu Matlab a všechny bloky jsou naprogramovány jako m-funkce. Důležité části kódu jsou z důvodu názornosti zobrazeny jako vývojové diagramy. Praktická část práce je rozdělena do několika podkapitol, kde každá podkapitola popisuje jeden blok z blokového schématu pro výpočet nejistoty odhadované doby příletu. Současně je zde vysvětlena funkce ostatních bloků pro plánování letu, předpověď počasí, kombinování větrů a výpočet odhadnuté doby příletu a její nejistoty.

Meteorological quantities measurement
BEZDĚKA, Vladimír
The thesis consists of 95 pages and 41 pages of enclosure. Pictures, charts and colour graphs are included. The thesis and the enclosure contain data presented in charts and from the charts graphs have been made. Also, internal material provided by the Czech Hydrometeorological Institute, České Budějovice 7, Antala Staška 1177/32 is incorporated, as well as data from two amateur weather-stations situated in České Budějovice and Hluboká nad Vltavou. The objective of this work is to explain and describe measuring apparatus and methods used in meteorology. The work also compares results gained from a professional weather-station with those from an amateur one.
