Identification and characterisation of abolished water reservoirs areas using GIS
Wolfová, Helena ; Matoušková, Milada (advisor) ; Šobr, Miroslav (referee)
This bachelor thesis aims to identify areas of small abolished water reservoirs using old maps and digital terrain model of the 5th generation. The main methodologies include georeferencing of old maps, followed by creation of an utmost detailed digital terrain model and field reconnaissance on the selected sites of abolished small water reservoirs. Changes in the land cover of selected abolished reservoirs as well as the change of the total water area in the study area were analysed. The thesis uses data obtained from Povodí Ohře s.p., the 5th generation digital model of relief, the old maps of the II, and III. military survey and maps in the S-52 coordinate system. The basin of Skřiváň brook, belonging to the basin of Svatava river, was selected as the study area. It was discovered that more than a half of the reservoirs disappeared during the 20th century. The most significant decrease was noticed during the 19th century. Area of small water reservoirs decreased to 40.51% of the original area from the period of the II. military survey. Key words: old maps, abolished water reservoirs, digital terrain model of the Czech Republic of the 5th generation, Svatava basin

Representation of the world in early maps
Jílková, Petra ; Bayer, Tomáš (advisor) ; Semotanová, Eva (referee)
Representation of the World in Early Maps Abstract The thesis deals with an analysis of the representation of the world in early small scale maps in the 16th - 18th centuries. The theoretical framework consists of the outline of the historical context of the given period with emphasis on the representation of the world in connection with the progress of the discoveries and the expansion of the geographical horizon. The development of navigation methods and technical means used to determine the latitude and longitude that had a direct impact on the positioning accuracy of topographic map elements are depicted, too. The practical part of the thesis is focused on the cartometric evaluation of selected map works of European cartographers of the period of 16th - 18th centuries, which consisted of the analysis of cartographic projection and the analysis of the positional accuracy of topographic content. The geometric accuracy of the maps is assessed mainly by the value of the positional deviations in the north-south and west-east directions. Based on the results of the cartometric evaluation, the evolution of the topographic content positioning is determined and the approximate time process of expanding the image of the known world on the contemporary maps is captured. The graphical outputs of the thesis are...

Influences and receptions of older and contenmporary cartographic handworks in cartographic handworks of 16 - 18th century
Chrást, Josef ; Bayer, Tomáš (advisor) ; Grim, Tomáš (referee)
Influences and receptions of older and contemporary cartographic handworks in cartographic handworks of 16-18th century Abstract The master thesis deals with mutual inspiration and copying maps and map outputs among the authors of important cartographic works of the Czech lands from the period 1526-1720. The aim of the thesis is to draft and test a methodology for analyzing degree of similarity between two different old maps. Based on the results of analysis it will be possible to say whether one of the map is a complete or a partial copy of the other map. The main part of the thesis is devoted to the draft of the methodology that allows comparison of two different old maps showing approximately the same territory, originating from a similar period and having generally the same scale. The practical part of the thesis is focused on verification of the methodology based on the analysis of the oldest cartographic handworks of Moravia from the Map Collection of Charles University in Prague and another Moravian map collections. The aim is to find "similar" maps and determine the degree of their similarity. Keywords: history of cartography, old maps, Moravia, Jan Amos Komensky, Pavel Fabricius

Analisis of historical landscape of Blatná hill-country from cartographic sources and archaeological sources
VOLDŘICHOVÁ, Dana
Gratuation theses: Analisis of historical landscape of Blatná hill-country from cartographic sources and archaeological sources view is focused on analysis of historical landscape Blatná hill-country, mainly from view of landscape archaeology and historical cartography. Blatná region has been often the target of local archaeologists in past and therefore by current archaelogical discoveries we can easily describe the development of settlement, on which basic we can establish historical seat zones. As a main source of knowledge were used (beside present archaeological discoveries) old maps, which helped in detail study of development of landscape for last cca 170 years. Comparison between maps from different time sections was made in geographic information system. There were each maps analised and they came throuth other processes. Identification of each region was completed by surface collections, which were took near ?Hradišťský creek?. The target of these collections was: completion of present archaeological discoveries and also to add new localities.
