Spatial and temporal trends in land-use changes of Central European landscapes in the last 170 years: a case study from the south-eastern part of the Czech Republic

Original language description

A quantitative evaluation of the dynamics and trends in changes of typical Central European landscapes in the Czech Republic is presented in this paper for the period 1836?2006. This study applied the technology of geographical information systems (GIS)to explore land-use changes using computer-aided analysis of historical and contemporary large-scale topographic maps. The area of study in the south-eastern part of the Czech Republic covers 4,187 sq. km. The analysis of a number of landscape changes from 1836 to 2006 showed that for 56% of the study area, the land-use did not change and thus the landscape remained stable. This quantitative approach, based on computer-aided interpretation of old and contemporary maps, provides valuable results relevantfor planning processes and nature conservation for the changing cultural landscapes of Central Europe.
