Methodological approaches to assessment of tourism potential
Klapka, Pavel ; Nováková, Eva ; Frantál, Bohumil
Suitability of an area for tourism and recreational needs belongs among traditional issues of the Czech geography. Generally this problem is divided into assessment of natural potential and assessment of cultural-historical potential of an area for tourism and recreation. This contribution is aimed at possibilities of quantitative expression of cultural-historical potential using spatial interaction models in the area of the South Moravia region.

Inovační potenciál v krajích ČR, ekonomické, společenské a regionální aspekty
Kunc, J. ; Klapka, Pavel ; Frantál, Bohumil
The issue assesses the innovation environment (potential) of the regions (NUTS II regions) of the Czech Republic according to six selected indexes. It is concerned with the rate of correlation association between the indexes, with typology of regions based on the innovation environment. The main objective of the article is to assess relevance of chosen method and classification, short introduction of innovation environment of the regions of the Czech Republic and their typology. A follow up objective is to assure of possibility of pick up the threats of next works or its application e.g. for more detailed hierarchical division of the Czech Republic.

Prostorová strukturace vnímání a vědomí regionálních a lokálních identit: analýza a kartografická reprezentace pomocí metod mentálního mapování (teoretický a metodologický úvod)
Frantál, Bohumil
The project following transdisciplinary approach comprising geographical, sociological and environmental-psychological view of the issue is about to be theoretically and empirically concerned with a question of subjective perception and construction of space and creation of territorially tied collective identities. Using the method of mental mapping and other behavioural-geographical, sociological and psychosemantic methods a spatial structure of awareness of local and regional identities, preferences, values and attitudes will be investigated. The factors affecting creation of subjective sense of places and relations (identifications) with places will be analysed and classified. The main result should be a set of mental maps (cartographic syntheses) delimiting and representing a model area (region) at different spatial hierarchical levels based on selected aspects, characteristics and subjective criteria.

Place identity, image and place branding: new perspectives and strategies of the municipal and regional development in the time of globalisation
Frantál, Bohumil
In connection with dynamic liberation, extension and integration of European space, with reduction of function of original politically delimited borders and with regard to global processes questions of place (state, regional and local) identities have been becoming frequently discussed issues and practical problems to deal with. In a time characteristic of perpetual change, uncertainty, fragmentation of social life, diversity and inconsistence of its forms the identity (self-definition) of a single person and their embedment in social-geographical space is getting more and more important. Together with spreading globalisation whose denominators are substantial mobility of capital, labour force, technologies and informations, with increasing competition among municipalities and regions in a sense of use and profit of available resources the identity and image of place become the key marketing tools in strategic planning of developing activities and their implementation.

Selected methodological approaches of the localization of wind power stations in the landscape
Frantál, Bohumil ; Kallabová, Eva ; Nováková, Eva
Geographical-sociological concept of wind energy problems solving (evaluation of spatial relations, environmental aspects and social context by the means of GIS) offers comprehensive approach and enables synthesis of environmental and social aspects, which is necessary for wider evaluation of the suitability of specific locality for wind energy development. Analysis of the spatial relationships in the landscape is necessary in decision making process of suitability or unsuitability. GIS (Geographic Information System) as a basic analytical tool helps to predict which areas have or do not have potential for wind energy development and determines the rate of the potential. Physical-geographical conditions with environmental and social aspects present the main criteria of suitability or unsuitability of the given locality. An analytic framework using GIS allows to develop the exact model which will demonstrate suitable locations and land available for possible wind power development.
