Meadow vegetation in the Krkonoše Mountains National Park is classified in this master thesis using aerial hyperspectral data from sensor AISA and Support Vector Machines (SVM) and Neural Networks (NN) classification algorithms. The main goals of the master thesis are to determine the best settings of SVM parameters and to propose an ideal design for a training dataset for this classification algorithm and mapping of the meadows in the Krkonoše mountains. The criterion of the tests will be the result of classification accuracy (confusion matrices and kappa coefficient). The additional goal of the master thesis is to compare performances of both utilized classifiers, especially regarding the amount of training pixels necessary for successful classification of the mountainous meadow vegetation. Classification maps of the area of interest and Python scripts are the main outputs of the master thesis. These outputs will be handed over to the Administration of the Krkonoše Mountains National Park for further utilization in the monitoring and protecting these valuable meadow vegetation communities. Key words: hyperspectral data, AISA, Support Vector Machines, Neural Networks, training dataset, mountainous meadow vegetation
