Spatial models of behaviour in changing urban environment: a time geographical approach
2009 – 2011 Project GA ČR no. 403/09/0885

Annotation
The project has been concerned with a changing behaviour of individuals in the urban environment. Three population segments with a relative excess of leisure time have been enquired: students, women on maternity leave and seniors. Time geographical approaches and techniques have been applied in order to catch the models of the spatial behaviour of the segments in four cities – Brno, Ostrava, Olomouc and České Budějovice.
