Spatiotemporal mobility of the inhabitants of Prague: Evaluation through carsharing usage data
Janeš, Jan ; Marada, Miroslav (advisor) ; Kraft, Stanislav (referee)
The thesis focuses on the topic of carsharing transport, which represents a still understudied but dynamically developing segment of urban mobility. The initial objectives include mapping the current carsharing market in Prague and outlining the basic mechanisms of this type of transport in comparison to car ownership. The subsequent geographical analysis relies on the importance of spatiotemporal contexts, which co-create the main factors that determine the distribution and concentration of carsharing vehicles. Finding the main spatial differentiations is essential to elucidate the causes of clustered locations, with a particular emphasis on analyzing large-scale data to identify and explain regularities. The analysis is based on data provided by a private carsharing company, which includes information on more than 17,000 rentals of shared vehicles. Part of the thesis also focuses on the potential optimization of the current setup of the carsharing company to achieve maximum efficiency. Key words: carsharing, transport, urban mobility, sustainable transport

Spatial externalities in transport: Prague case study
Tomášek, Radek ; Matějček, Tomáš (advisor) ; Novák, Jakub (referee)
Spatial externalities in transport: Prague case study Summary: This diploma thesis deals with spatial externalities in transport, namely occupation of land in the centre of Prague. It is divided into eleven chapters, which are further divided into individual subchapters. Literature review, in which the theoretical part of this work is contained, deals with the issue of externalities in transport and real estate evaluation and is listed in chapter four to seven. Practical part of thesis, which is primarily focused on quantifying and evaluating of occupation of land is contained in chapter eight. In its introduction there is also mentioned the methodology of work, including the data and programs used. Following part is a brief description of the monitored area. Based on the results of quantification and evaluation of occupation of land by the transport infrastructure there is subsequently elaborated discussion of possible use of the acquired knowledge. Ninth chapter is the conclusion in which the objectives of this work are repeated and thanks to their fulfilment also answers to the research questions that the author put in the introduction. Key words: externalities, sustainable transport, occupation of land, land evaluation, paid parking zones

Possibilities for developing sustainable transport in Prague
Macháč, Richard ; Černá Silovská, Hana (advisor) ; Kolaříková, Jana (referee)
This diploma thesis is concerned with the issue of sustainable transport. In the theoretical part, the emphasis is placed on setting the concept of sustainable transport into a broader context; it also describes various factors influencing the choice of the means of transport, which is crucial for transport planning. Furthermore, it describes a set of diverse tools used for transport regulation. At the end of the theoretical part, it mentions specific approaches implemented in selected cities all over the world. The practical part is based on a significant personal research, which helps to understand the issues of transport in a selected area of Prague. On the basis of this research, it subsequently suggests possible measures that might lead to a decrease in the intensity of automobile transport in the aforementioned area. Most of those measures can be similarly applied in other city areas as well.

Analysis of the project EUROVELO as the sustainable form of tourism in the Czech Republic 2004 - 2014
Starý, Filip ; Štípek, Vladimír (advisor) ; Zeman, Martin (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with potential and effectiveness of long-distance cycling routes EuroVelo in the Czech Republic. The thesis is based on hypothesis of sustainability of the project. For the sustainability is necessary concurrence of three functions -- sociocultural, environmental and economical. The set hypothesis is considered from multiple views. Firstly SWOT analysis was made -- this analysis shows the most important internal and external factors of project. Moreover this analysis confirms sociocultural and environmental sustainability of project. Then cost-benefit analysis was carried out. This cost-benefit analysis creates the required minimum number of use of cycling routes EuroVelo per year (with given opportunity costs) so that the project will be sustainable economically. With the highest simulated opportunity costs (20%) the minimum number of usage per year must be 3,08 million. Whereas EuroVelo routes connect the most attractive cycling trails in the Czech Republic, we can consider this number of use as realistic. The main benefit of the thesis is complex analysis of conditions and impacts of the project EuroVelo in the Czech Republic based on partial methods and calculations.

The Carsharing system and its use in the Czech Republic (South Bohemia)
VACHTOVÁ, Veronika
SUMARRY The theme of this bachelor thesis is ?The Car Sharing? which is one of the options how to reduce individual automobile transport. In the second part of this work the Car Sharing is applied to the selected region. Primarily the study of individual automobile transport contributed to the successful analysis, which showed the need to ponder on this issue. It is important to seek alternatives to reduce the adverse effects of automobile transport. The car sharing system sounds like very promising alternative that could be spread across the Czech Republic in the future. This would help reduce negative influence of the transport. Application of the system, which is described in the fourth chapter, could be the solution. The region which was selected for this project is one of the most beautiful landscapes in the Czech Republic. This suggested service would help those who not own the car.
