Interpretation of altitude on topographic maps USA
Pavelková, Zuzana ; Hanzl, Vlastimil (referee) ; Plánka, Ladislav (advisor)
The thesis aims to analyze the altitude interpretation of the topographic maps of the U.S. and to compare them with Czech topographic maps. I have obtained the source materials for completion of the thesis during the Work and Travel exchange program in the U.S. in 2012, which also inspired me to deal with this thesis topic. The most important producer of U.S. topographic maps is the national company United States Geological Survey, which uses the U.S. customary units based on the Anglo-American measurement system that make a significant difference when interpreting the altitude of U.S. topographic maps and Czech ones. The fact that American society does not use the metric system very much, results in the use of map scales that are unique and very unusual for topographic maps. Another important producer is the company Army Map Service. Since the U.S.A. and the Czech Republic are both member states of North Atlantic Treaty Organization, the production of military topographic maps strictly adheres to the NATO standards.

Use of annotation scale for vectorization and generalization of topographic map in MicroStation
Krška, Jakub ; Andělová, Pavla (referee) ; Berková, Alena (advisor)
The MicroStation CONNECT Edition program is characterized by a complete change of the user environment, which the user can also create according to the specified requirements. The result of the work is the creation of a user environment (the ribbon) for drawing a topographic map. At the same time, the annotation scale is implemented for selected elements, its use facilitates the possible generelization of the map. At the end of the work, the created WorkSet is tested on the vectorization of a topographic map and its subsequent generalization.

Generalization of Road Network in Topographic Maps
Vojtíšková, Zuzana ; Lysák, Jakub (advisor) ; Jindrák, Přemysl (referee)
Generalization of Road Network in Topographic Map Abstract The diploma thesis presents automated selection of the elements of path network. The review deals with this term and describes its position in map generalization process; the ways of path thinning apllied in the main Czech cartography institutions are reviewed too. Next part of the thesis describes the data and the tools that are applied in the proposed method. The main part introduces the suggested method of selecting elements of path network which was implemented on the test data. Keywords: map generalization, path network, path thinning, graph theory, ZABAGED, ArcGIS, Python, NetworkX

Topographic mapping of rock formations with the use of airborne laser scanning data
Lysák, Jakub ; Potůčková, Markéta (advisor) ; Brázdil, Karel (referee) ; Šíma, Jiří (referee)
Abstract This thesis focuses on topographic mapping of rock formations with the use of new technologies in a comprehensive manner, from airborne laser scanning (ALS) data acquisition and processing in rocky terrains, followed by their processing to the content of topographic databases and their cartographic processing in maps. The introduction discusses issues of importance for practice, and the relation between topographic mapping of rocks and other fields of human activity. The ALS section describes products for topographic mapping of rocks derived from ALS data, and discusses the specifics of ALS data acquisition and processing in wooded rugged terrain. Existing solutions of this problem are explained and their limitations are identified. Author's own approaches to solving this task are presented as case studies, including three made a further three designed experiments with ALS data processing and evaluation of their results. Recommendation regarding mapping of sandstone landscapes in Czechia have been also addressed. The topographic section describes the current representation of rocks and related objects in the ZABAGED database (Czech national digital topographic database), explains the historical context, analyzes this data and identifies their shortcomings in relation to the ALS.

The Analysis of the Selected Cartographic Work
SMÍTALOVÁ, Lenka
The topic of this bachelor´s thesis is The Analysis of the Selected Cartographic Work, more precisely the Elementary Map of Czech Republic 1:10 000. It focuses on its development, cartographic and geodesic basis. It covers the map?s content, which was significantly extended thanks to ZABAGED.
