The Department of Regional Geography and Environment

So far, the website of the Department of Regional Geography and Environment has been my most significant project. The site was programmed during my free time and is designated for communication between staff and students. To achieve the purpose, I had to develop a fully-fledged management with a sophisticated user group classification. Design manual of the department was developed along with the website.

Aveler - facility management

Static (with the possibility to be updated to dynamic one) website for a small company dealing with facility management.

Ružomberok - a geography analysis

This study was an essential physical-geography and human-geography analysis of the Ružomberok city with fully-fledged thematic cartography enclosures.

Bratislava - a geography analysis

This study was an essential physical-geography and human-geography analysis of the Bratislava city with fully-fledged thematic cartography enclosures. The cartography included harmonization of materials, design of their accurate graphic representation and emphasis on selected landscape components. The contours were converted to hill-shade by a computer technique.

The Functional Urban Region of Bratislava

The main goal of my rigorous thesis was to analyse the population growth with various projections of different growth allocation between Bratislava and the rest of the region. Many thematic maps depicting its traits was the secondary output of the thesis. The approximation of the job number in individual municipalities (elementary statistical units) was carried out by a simple mathematic modelling.

Bratislava region - a daily commuting analysis

The analysis of daily commuting was used as a primary material for a public passenger analysis conducted after the launch of III. stage of the Integrated Transport System in Bratislava Region. One of the studies dealt with the commuting isochrones calculated by interpolation methods.

Gemer - a transport analysis

The main goal of the study was to observe the changes in modal split after the abolishment of all rail services on local tracks in the Gemer region.

The regional dimensions of Slovakia - a book cover proposal

The main goal of the project was to propose the cover and finalise desktop publishing for a domestic monography.

The graphical plan of the regional transport in Bratislava

The main goal of the project was to analyze the regional transport route network in the Bratislava region and provide a graphical output. Plans of several transfer terminals were supplied along with the results

The graphical output for the promotional Public Passenger Transport material

The national transport policy has been declared in the so-called Strategy plan of transport development in the Slovak Republic until 2030. This plan comprises bottleneck analysis, goals, measure design and others. To facilitate the process, a booklet has been developed for either local or regional bodies to highlight the most fundamental parts from the plan, especially those concerning public passenger transport.

Self home-made materials for the high school teaching

To optimise the teaching of the Geography of the Slovak Republic, I have developed a simple set of cartography equipment for pupils. This equipment helped to replace the process of taking notes, which is time-consuming, by useful tool fostering the visual memory and the sense for orientation.

Moreover, an expansion to make the whole teaching process even more useful, I have prepared an Internet application called The Geography Atlas of Slovakia. Its development has been terminated as I left the job I required this application for.

The geography atlas of Slovakia

The main goal of the development of the application was to facilitate the teaching process. The app allows the user to plot a variety of thematic maps of Slovakia. Further progress was to be continued, but upon leaving my job, there was no motivation to update the interface. Please, feel free to try out the application by clicking the link below.

The regional division proposal from my doctoral thesis

Amidst the few goals of my doctoral thesis, the most essential was to find a suitable system of the internal structure of the functional urban regions in Slovakia as an organic origin for advanced suburbanization research without unnecessary statistical bias caused by distant municipalities of a FUR that interaction with a regional core is negligible. The whole calculation was written as a source code that included a few control mechanisms and iterations.

The trains of Slovakia map

The main subject of the project was a graphical plan of rail transport routes as an output of an audit of the connectivity of the rail transport network in Slovakia for the 2016/2017 rail transport timetable.

Dubová - a civic proposal of traffic calmed zone

Dubová is the name of my neighbourhood named after the street. Ever since I moved to my location, I have strived for better and safe transport. From 2010 to 2019, I sent tens of suggestions to the city office, while some were accepted and implemented, and some were instead ignored. An idea to resend all the proposals to the freshly elected council struck my mind in March 2019. I used my very few graphics skills and knowledge in transport finally producing a study with bottleneck identification, proposals and photographic documentation.

A schematic map of suburban bus transport routes in the Bratislava region

In 2016 I was asked to process the first proposal of a suburban bus transport routes schematic map of the Bratislava region for the A3 output. The system was very customer unfriendly as almost every bus route number contained more than ten different branches and varied a lot. The schematic map proposal confirmed this issue, which contributed to significant changes as of August 2018 that led to unambiguity and reduction of useless system variability.

National transport plan - a proposal of a schematic enclosure

The Ministry of Transport and Construction of the Slovak Republic launched the project called The National transport plan in 2019 to tackle issues with different competencies among different transport commissioners throughout Slovakia. That was a part I was called in to prepare a simple schematic map of current and proposed train lines and connecting bus routes. Each line got its number or name, its colour and the stroke thickness represented the proposed departures of the respective line per hour. A simple benefits chart added it up. The proposal included three different scenarios. The business-as-usual scenario is provided with as the simplest example.

A schematic map of suburban bus transport routes in the Trnava region

To prepare a so call Sustainable mobility plan of the region and the subsequent Transport plan of the region, it was necessary to assess the service area of all suburban bus routes. Like in the Bratislava region in 2016, it was the first schematic map of suburban bus routes at the stops level.

A proposal of zones system in suburban bus transport of the Trnava region

Due to the plans pertaining implementation of prepaid transport cards, the Trnava region ought to establish a just brand new system of transport zones. Since the public transport integration of the Bratislava region and Trnava region is inevitable owing to the geographical conditions, the regionalisation method in Trnava has been built on the one in Bratislava to make the forthcoming unification as seamless as possible.
