Abstract

Urban planning in the Czech Republic is governed by the Act No. 183/2006 Coll., the Construction Act and the Ministry Decree No. 500/2006 Coll. These laws make it an obligation to create and maintain up to date Analytical Materials for Planning (Územně analytické podklady -- UAP) containing four specific maps showing Territories Requiring Preservation, Territorial Challenges, Territorial Limits and Territorial Concepts. Currently, there is no uniform approach to the cartographic visualization of these maps. This article describes the process of designing the symbology and then the creating of four thematic maps that meet the requirements. The maps that have been produced through the current project are the result of collaboration between the Department of Geoinformatics, the Regional Authority of the Olomouc Region and the City of Olomouc. The joint project was focused on the creation of a comprehensive symbology for the UAP maps required by law. The new symbology respects basic cartographic rules and meets the needs of decision-making. Simultaneously the procedure for updating maps with new ones was designed. The output of the project represents the first attempt to standardize the creation of UAP maps in the Czech Republic. The Regional Authority of the Olomouc Region certified the new symbology as a recommended methodology for creating UAP maps. The symbology is currently in use in 9 of the 13 districts of Olomouc region: Olomouc, Jeseník, Lipník nad Bečvou, Šumperk, Přerov, Litovel, Hranice, Prostějov a Šternberk. All the maps are available on the public website of the Olomouc region.
