“…Mapping the general quality of the public environment, in this case study represented by question about deprived areas, is also common in perception research (Cinderby 1999, Pánek et al 2017b. Although it seems that there are several hot-spots on the maps below (Fig.…”

Community participation has entered the 21st century and the era of e-participation, e-government and e-planning. With the opportunity to use Public Participation Support Systems, Computer-Aided Web Interviews and crowdsourcing mapping platforms, citizens are equipped with the tools to have their voices heard. This paper presents a case study of the deployment of such an online mapping platform in Jeseník, Czech Republic. In total, 533 respondents took part in the online mapping survey, which included six spatial questions. Respondents marked 4,714 points and added 1,538 comments to these points. The main aim of the research was to find whether there were any significant differences in the answers from selected groups (age, gender, home location) of respondents. The results show largest differences in answers of various (below 20 and above 20 year) age groups. Nevertheless further statistical examination would be needed to confirm the visual comparison.

“…Spatial planning using advanced GIS technologies could greatly benefit from public engagement. Tools for incorporating laypersons into public agendas vary from basic forms of collecting data (such as crowdsourcing), through "fix-my-street" applications (such as Járókelő: see Marietta, 2016) to designing urban space and facilities (Pánek et al, 2014(Pánek et al, , 2017. Most of the geoparticipatory approaches (there is also a decision support tool for selecting the optimal participatory mapping method -see Pánek, 2015) involve the basic principles of citizen science.…”

“…Various scientific papers dealing with citizen science have recently been published (mostly in Czech) in the Czech Republic: a study researching dragonflies used a citizen science approach (Ožana et al, 2019); similarly, a text on ornithological research (Diblíková et al, 2019); and several papers exploring the concept of GeoParticipation, which is (in some respects) closely connected to citizen science (e. g. Pánek et al, 2017). Most other contributions fall within the sphere of grey and/or popular literature.…”

Citizen science is a relatively new phenomenon in the Czech Republic and currently a general overview of existing citizen science projects is not available. This presents the challenge to uncover the ‘hidden’ citizen science landscapes. The main objective of this paper is to explore the (public) representation of citizen science (CS) projects and to describe their heterogeneity. The study aims to answer the question of what type of projects in the Czech Republic meet the definition of citizen science. Based on a specific methodological data-base search approach, we compiled a set of CS projects (N = 73). During the classification process, two general citizen science categories were identified. The first group (N = 46) consists of “pure” CS projects with a prevalence towards the natural sciences, principally ornithology, and thus corresponding to general European trends. Citizens usually participate in such research in the form of data collection and basic interpretation, and a high level of cooperation between academia and NGOs was detected. The second group of “potential” CS projects (N = 27) entails various forms of public participation in general, frequently coordinated by NGOs. Based on these results, we discuss the position of citizen science in the Czech Republic, including socially-oriented citizen science. Further research is strongly encouraged to achieve a more in-depth insight into this social phenomenon.
