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.

Historical development of construction geodetic control in the Czech Republic
Minařík, Michal ; Tollingerová, Dana (advisor) ; Loula, Jiří (referee)
This thesis maps surveying in our country since its inception in the 11th century, especially the emergence and development of geodetic control points since the 19th century to the present, used cartographic projections, coordinate systems and how they are used. The work is divided into six areas, the first of which describes the very beginnings of the Cadastre, the following four areas mapped emergence and progress of surveying in each period and the last six chapters are dedicated to the creation, description and usage Czech network of permanent points for positioning (CZEPOS).
