Adaptation to climate change: assessment of urban vulnerability to heatwaves and extreme heat
Suchá, Lenka ; Geletič, Jan ; Vaňo, Simeon ; Bašta, Petr ; Jančovič, M. ; Duchková, Helena
The methodology is focused on integrated modelling of climate change impacts on social-ecological systems in cities and on the methodological approach to vulnerability assessment of heatwaves and extreme heat at local and city scales. Recent approaches are often based on insufficient data where land use, land cover and distribution of population in space are considered as constant. This methodology then presents a complex approach to scenario building of future vulnerability of cities to heatwaves and extreme heat, that is based on data synthesis originating from spatial modelling and participatory processes. To this end, the methodology elaborates on the aspects of climate modelling, land use and land cover scenarios development and socio-demographic scenarios until the year 2050. The outcomes of the application of the methodology are a significant tool for urban adaptation planning in terms of adaptation measures allocation to the areas with recent and future sensibility to heat stress.
Filtration of Airborne Laserscanning Data

Filtration of Airborne Laserscanning Data Abstract The diploma thesis deals with automatized area classification with different surfaces in rocky towns. These areas are input into Airborne Laser-Scanning data filtration, where each of the areas is filtered with different parameters. The reason for this approach is the extreme height variety and dense vegetation typical for rocky towns, which causes the inadequacy of most common filtration algorithms applied with the same set of parameters for whole area. The methodic proposed by us consists of splitting the area of interest into three parts: Residential area, rocky area and area of vegetation (i.e. area that doesn't contain rocks or buildings). Each of these has special parameters applied during the following filtration, which reflect its characteristics. Key words: laser scanning, DTM, rocky towns, area based filtration
