Abstract
Landscape changes are a very common phenomenon in the area of North-West Bohemia(the Czech Republic) as this area is heavy industrialized. This paper presents two methods forobserving the landscape – the bathymetric mapping and the aerial mapping. The bathymetricmapping is used to reconstruct the original surface in area where the Nechranice dam was built in1960’ and to evaluate the sedimentation caused by the Ohře River. The original surface of the Ohřeriver canyon was reconstructed using old maps and the bathymetric mapping was performed withLowrance HDS-5 Sonar. The aerial mapping introduced in this paper is a new method of using SmallFormat Aerial Photography in connection with an ordinary aircraft. The gimbal (camera stabilization)normally used by Unmanned Aerial Vehicles is mounted into a small aircraft and allowing thescanning of very large areas – in our case the open-pit mine Tušimice was the target of our study.The derived orthophoto and Digital Surface Models were used to complete the georelief developmentanalysis based on old maps and aerial photographs.
