Analyzing the geographic distribution of managed water infrastructure within the mountain forest landscape.
Mapped Reservoir Features and Engineered Water Systems in Šumava National Park
This geographic collection documents reservoir sites situated within or adjacent to the protected boundaries of Šumava National Park. These bodies of water are identified by their status as modified water systems; formed through human intervention such as dams or impoundments. Tracking these features provides essential context for understanding the broader hydrographic character of the region and how engineered infrastructure integrates with the ancient forest mosaic of this protected mountain range.

Viewpoints
A viewpoint is a named observation location from which surrounding terrain, water, or other natural features can be seen and interpreted. Unlike the other categories, it identifies a place defined by its outlook rather than a landform or hydrological system in its own right. It may be entirely natural, lightly adapted, or supported by built infrastructure, but that distinction requires feature-specific evidence.

Ponds
A pond is a relatively small body of standing water occupying a natural or modified depression. It may be permanent, seasonal, spring-fed, rain-fed, stream-connected, glacial, karstic, or biologically influenced, but none of those properties follows from the label alone. The boundary between pond and lake varies across local naming systems and cannot be reduced to one universal size or depth threshold.
