| Description | The evaluation of geoheritage is one of the tools of geoconservation. For the geomorphological assessment it is possible to use the concept "geomorphosites" which includes both inventorying and evaluation and proposals for management and rational use of the sites. This concept was used for evaluating selected geomorphological sites in the western part of Podyjí National Park. Although the area is protected and conserved, geoheritage is not well promoted and managed. The results of the assessment can serve as a base for proposals for rational use and management. Other perspectives of the use of the geomorphologic assessment are outlined too. |
