Abstract

The paperedeals with the results of an analysis of landscape element changes, such as forests, water areas, agricultural areas, built-up areas, anthropogenic shapes in the selected area. The applied method makes use of the possibilities of Geographical Information Systems, terrain observation, documentation and study of archives. The starting time period for which the landscape character analysis was carried out is the year of 1946 (military aerial photos) and the present time (maps). The research is localized in the selected area of the city of Ostrava, which has been affected by former mining of black coal. Ostrava, which is situated in the north-east of the Czech Republic, belongs among the worst affected European regions, with regard to landscape and environmental changes, and thus it is suitable for the above-mentioned research. The overall project was divided into nine model areas (1a,1b,1c,2a,2b,2c,3a,3b,3c), while this paper evaluates a partial model area of 3a, which is defined by the aerial photos No. 625, 627, 651 and 653 from 1946. Namely they are Poruba, Svinov, Z\'abЕ™eh, TЕ™ebovice, Nov\'a ves a Polanka nad Odrou. The mentioned methodology was applied in the interest area for the first time and thus the results are awaited by the expert public.
