Monitoring of Czech Landscape Development Using GIS and Remote Sensing
Historical studies of landscape represent a part of traditional research in Czech geography. Modern technologies allow carrying out more accurate, more detail and more extended research actions. Methodically the historical landscape studies are supported with rich territorial databases of maps and aerial/satellite imagery. Examples presented in the paper document typical ways of GIS and RS applications starting with digital multitemporal imagery analysis to the utilizing of digital landscape model as fully integrated and sophisticated database supporting landscape analysis with respect to both natural and social area features.
