- ItemTvorba interaktivních map v projektu Prameny KrkonošPanuš, Jan; Hoffmannová, Petra; Kocián, Jiří; Nemeškal, JiříThe study presents the introductory work, development and creation of interactive maps, which are one of the results of the Historical Sources of the Giant Mountains project. The goal was to present the newly collected statistical data and previously unused map materials in digital form in a shape that would be accessible to the widest possible range of users and at the same time provide sufficiently deep insight for professional researchers. The result is two freely available maps documenting the development of the Krkonoše region during the 20th century. The first focuses on changes in the structure of the population, the second on changes in the structure of the economy and transport infrastructure of the region. Both maps enable comparative visualization of various types of statistical data against each other and at the same time a diachronic comparison of the development in question in chronologically organized time layers representing the logical periodization of the history of the region. The third map provides users with information on the location and types of various kinds of sources for the study of the history of the Krkonoše Mountains.
