Kučera, Michal ; Jaroš, Jakub (advisor) ; Žáková, Zuzana (referee)
Cartographic and geoinformatic evaluation of current bathymetric maps Abstract This thesis is focusing on methods used in the process of creating bathymetric maps of lakes. In the first part of the thesis are described methods used for shoreline mapping and possibilities of depth measurements. In the theoretical part are also described interpolation methods which could be applied on point datasets. At first is given general description of these methods and after that follows also the detailed description of these methods in ArcGIS. Next part of the thesis describes cartographic methods used in bathymetry and in this part are also evaluated current bathymetric maps. The main discussion in this part is regarding cartographic and geoinformatic methods used in the process of creation these maps. In the last part is suggested a new attitude in this process and there are also created bathymetric maps using new combination of cartographic methods. These maps are enclosed at the end of the thesis. Key words: bathymetry, map, gis, cartography, interpolation

Cartographic representation of hydrographic features in the state map series
Poláková, Tereza ; Lysák, Jakub (advisor) ; Šára, Pavel (referee)
Cartographic representation of hydrographic features in the state map series Abstract The goal of this bachelor thesis is to create a proposal to completion digital topographic database ZABAGED for hydrographic features. The first part is devoted to introduction to map keys of large scale Czech topographic maps since 1950s and also with the content of database ZABAGED. The emphasis is also put on historical context of new mapping and formation of digital database. The second part deals with a representation of hydrographic features and their guidance in digital topographic databases in four foreign countries. The practical part is devoted to designing a completion of attributes and features to ZABAGED. In view of the new attributes a cartographic representation of selected hydrographic features for the large scale maps is designed. All proposals were created considering the regulation of European Commission INSPIRE Data Specification on Hydrography. Keywords: hydrographic features, cartography, topographic databases, comparative study

Courier Service in Dvůr Králové n. L. in the Early Modern Period
Iša, František ; Čechura, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Kostlán, Antonín (referee)
This diploma thesis focuses on the issue of oral and written communication through the groups of couriers, who mediated between smaller royal dowry town Dvůr Králové nad Labem and its own villages as well as another distant locations situated in another dominion. Diploma thesis applies to region called Podkrkonoší in the advanced Early Modern Period, describes and analyses some of the preserved archival primary sources of knowledge dedicated to the courier services in Dvůr Králové nad Labem. It mentions the enviroment in which the gateke- epers and other couriers fulfilled their services. This thesis attempts to define the relationship between the distance and courier's income in Dvůr Králové nad Labem's domain and outside of it. In the context of diverse contents of oral and written messages the thesis mentions sever- al other topics, for example the actual filling work of corvée (or statute labour), showing by gatekeepers the way to hussar-soldier at surveying, transport of beggars and vagabonds and even the beginning of postal services in this area. Working method is based on detailed archival probe into rarely preserved municipal bookkeeping, especially into records of gate- keeper's courier services and records of other settled couriers both from the year 1740 and 1768. Results are presented...

Jedlička, Josef ; Jaroš, Jakub (advisor) ; Lébr, Lukáš (referee)
UNIVERZITA KARLOVA V PRAZE Přírodovědecká fakulta katedra aplikované geoinformatiky a kartografie Studijní program: Geografie Studijní obor: Geografie a kartografie KARTOGRAFICKÉ ZPRACOVÁNÍ DAT V ÚZEMNĚ ANALYTICKÝCH PODKLADECH CARTOGRAPHIC PROCESSING OF THE DATA CONTAINED IN THE PLANNING ANALYTICAL MATERIALS Bakalářská práce Josef Jedlička Vedoucí bakalářské práce: Mgr. Jakub Jaroš Praha 2013 Cartographic processing of the data contained in the planning analytical materials Abstract The aim of this thesis is to point out the lack of cartographic expertise in text sections of planning analytical materials. Maps, which are placed into these materials, are assessed according to a technical and esthetical qualification. First part of this thesis contains interpretations of different methods of cartographic assessment. In this part we choose most acceptable method for this theme. In the next part of this thesis we use verbal assessment to assess cartographic works in planning analytical materials. Last part presents new maps, where has been applied the correct cartographic techniques and which can replace the old ones in those documents. These maps can also be used as patterns for cartographic application in planning analytical materials. The discussion deals with different views of municipalities to using...

Algorithm for automated building simplification using aggregation
Svobodová, Jana ; Bayer, Tomáš (advisor) ; Lysák, Jakub (referee)
Algorithm for automated building simplification using aggregation Abstract Diploma thesis deals with automated cartographic generalization. The main aim is to propose a new generalization algorithm for building aggregation. The first part brings summary of existing algorithms for building aggre- gation. Then the new algorithm is presented: at first, auxiliary data structu- res and algorithms are presented, then cartographic and geometric require- ments are defined. New algorithm is based on the principle of straight skeleton construction. Outer vertices are removed from constructed straight skeletons and those structures are aggregated. The aggregated polygon is reconstructed from ag- gregated structures. The second part is focused on implementation and results evaluation. The algorithm is implemented using open-source libraries CGAL, Boost and Shapelib. The results and confrontation with SW ArcGIS are discus- sed in conclusion of the thesis. 1

Interdisciplinary relation between cartography and mathematics in the teaching at high school
Leipertová, Gabriela ; Netrdová, Pavlína (advisor) ; Marada, Miroslav (referee)
LEIPERTOVÁ, G. (2012): Interdisciplinary relation between cartography and mathematics in the teaching at high school. Department of Social Geography and Regional Development, Charles University in Prague. The present diploma thesis analyses interdisciplinary relations between cartography and mathematics on three levels: on the level of intended curriculum, on the level of implemented curriculum and on the level of attained curriculum. On the level of the intended curriculum, project documents such as the Framework Educational Programme for High Schools and the School Educational Programmes of selected high schools are especially studied. The content analysis of selected textbooks of geography evaluates relations between cartography and mathematics on the basis of occurrence and (quality of) explication of required subject matters, amount of examples, illustrations and charts. Moreover, selected chapters of cartography, in which mathematical skills are applied, are elaborated in detail. On the level of the implemented curriculum, the real state of teaching of these interdisciplinary relations at selected high schools is evaluated through questionnaires for teachers of geography and of mathematics. On the level of the attained curriculum, the ability of pupils to combine knowledge of cartography and...

Identity and Displacement in Contemporary Postcolonial Fiction
Olehlová, Markéta ; Nováková, Soňa (advisor) ; Franková, Milada (referee) ; Kolinská, Klára (referee)
English summary The main objective of this thesis is to present some key issues relevant for postcolonial field of study with respect to two basic areas of interest: concepts of identity and place, respectively displacement in contemporary postcolonial discourse and their reflection in fiction, too. The thesis should provide the potential reader with basic theoretical background based on the most fundamental sources and by means of selected literary works it should support (or disclaim, if necessary) conclusions reached by the most notable theories. This dissertation work consists of three major parts. In the introduction, apart from providing the motivational, theoretical and literary objectives of the thesis, I cover some basic difficulties that may occur when dealing with the postcolonial field of study. The central part of the thesis can be divided into two parts, each of them consisting of two further sections. The first one, "Identity in Postcolonial Discourse", is focused on one of the key terms in all of postcolonial theory: identity and other concepts related with it. I cover the basic development of theoretical reflection concerning this concept, drawing primarily from secondary sources dealing with it. The theoretical part on identity is succeeded by a chapter "Reflections of Identity in the...

Representation of time in cartographic works on the example of maps of historical battles
Vít, Lukáš ; Bláha, Jan Daniel (advisor) ; Bayer, Tomáš (referee)
Representation of time in cartographic works on the example of maps of historical battles Abstract This study contains an in-depth analysis of possible graphical presentation of the fourth cartographic dimension (time) and utilizes the acquired findings in prototypical animated maps of historical battles. The initial chapter reflects cartography in general, later, the area of animated maps is in focus. The first part of the text is dedicated to the connection of cartography and time. Practical means of time representation are described. Further, a recommended general pattern is specified for design and development of time legend, so that time presentation suits the nature of the depicted theme. Consecutively, this general pattern is applied to a set of pieces of cartographical work depicting (historical) battles. The tangible result of this work is an interactive cartographic animation presenting the battle of Gettysburg and preceding events. Keywords: time, cartography, temporal legend, animated map, battle
