Utilization of geographically weighted regression (GWR) in forestry modeling
Quirós-Segovia, María
The diploma thesis is focused on the application of the Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) in forestry models. This is a prospective method for coping with spatially heterogeneous data. In forestry, this method has been used previously in small areas with good results, but in this diploma thesis it is applied to a bigger area in the Region of Murcia, Spain. Main goal of the thesis is to evaluate GWR for developing of large scale height-diameter model based on data of National Forest Inventory of Spain. Final model is compared with local height-diameter model on validation plots. The obtained results are very different according to the level of input data and GWR calibration type. The best result is obtained with individual tree data and with fixed kernel calibration. In order to improve quality of GWR calibration several suggestion were made, such as change weighted functions. GWR method is highly promising because in the case of need a particular model for some large area, there is possible to make sufficiently precise model at any point of the area of interest without need of any additional measurements in particular forest stand.

Tree spatial pattern in secondary tropical forest - study within the SAFE Project led by European scientists in Borneo
Kvasnica, Jakub
This study, conducted in secondary tropical rainforest in Sabah, Malaysia, is based on data collection using FieldMap technology. All positions of trees (DBH bigger 1 cm) and other attributes were recorded within 24 research plots (25 x 25 m). The aim of this study is to determine any deviation from a random arrangement of trees and nonrandom spatial structures in tree mortality using second order statistics (pair correlation function). All analyses were carried out with the comprehensive software package for conducting spatial point pattern analysis, Programita (developed by Wiegand 2012).

Evaluation the attractiveness tourist resorts on the Jindřichohradecko
KOVÁŘOVÁ, Kateřina
The objective of this thesis was to evaluate the attractiveness of Jindřichův Hradec. The theoretical part is a description of the basic assumptions, which are used as standard assessments of potential for tourism. Other, more complex methods are spatial analysis and overlay analysis. The practical part is the description field under review. Detailed analysis of the primary components of the assumptions offer and secondary offer. For further evaluation method is developed based on defining the conditions for tourism, which are then scored and ranked and the obtained information are summarized. The same data are used to create maps in the GIS program. All results are evaluated for overall impression of intensity and attractiveness of tourism. Conclusion is a recommendation for the development of sustainable tourism in the area Jindřichův Hradec.

Regional external economic relations
VAVERA, Jiří
Thesis about regional external economic relations try to resolve a question how subjects in a selected region (Prachatice district) conduct to economic relations with subjects of other territory and how these economic interactions can be describe. The target of the thesis is to characterize these relations on inferior level than the national economy. Literature retrieval cites authors from the field of regional science. Recherché summarises the base methods of research of the matter. The main part of the study describes collecting data about economic activities on two levels external regional relations LAU1 - NUTS1 and LAU1 - LAU1. Data about turnover of goods between 114 entities and subjects from the EU for years from 2004 to 2009 on LAU 1 - NUTS 1 level was obtained from the database Intrastat. Data about interregional exchange on LAU 1 - LAU 1 level were drawn from accounts of three companies from Prachatice district. All data are presented in several ways in tables, charts and maps and commented too. In the thesis is formulated equation which objectifies interregional distances so that responded to its negative effect to size of economic relations between regions. For prediction of the relations can be used reciprocal of the distance (index). The hypothesis on the validity of the formula (index), is statistically tested and confirmed on the end of thesis.

Factors of localization of economic subjects in Euroregion Labe
Suchá, Tereza ; Kramulová, Jana (advisor) ; Damborský, Milan (referee)
The present bachelor work deals with evaluation of location factors that are crucial for economic subjects when they localize their residencies and which undoubtedly affect the overall structure of the national economy. The goal of this work is to characterize the most important location factors that led the companies to place their residencies in the Euroregion Labe. In the theoretical part the historical development of location theory is introduced. Furthermore, major economic aspects which play role in locating firms are defined as well as several spatial analysis indicators are explained. The practical part is focused on the summary of euroregions importance, introduction of socio - economic situation of the Euroregion Labe and the characteristics of companies located here. The final part is devoted to evaluation of questionnaire research which strives to generalize important location factors.
