Vice-President
Maps and atlases make me hot. In 2001, I established Department of Geoinformatics at Palacký University, currently the leading cartographic department in Czech Republic. As head and professor, I manage education, research and outreach activities in cartography and GIScience. I teach thematic and atlas cartography and undertake research in geosciences, where geovisualization plays a crucial role. I have been active in the Czech Cartographic Society and later in the ICA Commissions on Education and Atlases. I organized the Czech national cartographic conferences in 1997 and 2009. ICA provides a permanent source of knowledge and inspirations in my work and a community of similar, crazy friends. My aim is to serve ICA by dedicating my knowledge, experience, enthusiasm and my energy.
