The first chapters are devoted to the explanation of basic terms, the geological description of the region and the history of earthquakes in the region. The historical development of macroseismic scales and a detailed description of the EMS-98, used for the evaluation of the 2008 earthquake swarm data, are contained in the following chapters. The main part of the present work deals with the manual macroseismic evaluation of the swarm followed by a description of the program for the automatic evaluation of data. The program results were found to agree with the manual evaluation. In the next part there is a detailed description of a program for drawing isoseismal lines. In the appendix the reader can find an overview of macroseismic scales, sample questionnaires and suggestions to improve the Czech questionnaire. Keywords: macroseismical intensity, EMS-98...
